Wish I had read your comment before struggling with it for what seemed like hours.
Yes… Advice for when you go into this BEFORE consulting the internet and accidentally RIP it out?
I ripped the ribbon. Where can I find it’s replacement?

-
-
Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to unscrew the nine 4.5mm screws.
-
Use a Phillips #0 screwdriver to unscrew the three 2.5 mm screws. This will allow you to remove the metal casing.
-

-
Slightly rotate the motherboard clockwise. This will prevent ports from getting caught on the plastic backing.
-
Lift the plastic backing to remove it.
-
-
-
Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove four 5 mm screws. This will release the fan.
Not sure if it’s necessary to remove any of these screws. None appear to actually secure the fan itself.
-
-
-
Pull the fan away from the metal housing unit.
-
Gently lift the fan up and out of the device. The fan is now removed.
My fan had a rubber boot around it (not seen or mentioned here), as well as a bit of foam tape around the front edge (as seen in pic #2). My replacement fan did not have this tape, so I substituted some masking tape. Not sure of its purpose or whether its absence will be a problem. Still piecing the thing back together.
Removal and replacement of the fan was indeed challenging. I used a couple popsicle sticks to help get the boot back over it.

Very nice set of instructions! Excellent images and identification of items to remove. Thank you!
Do you know where to get this fan for replacement? Having trouble finding a parts list.
Small fan is GB1245PKVX-8, large fan is KDE1285PTV1
I am trying to determine if the fan works or not. Should the fan come on when there is no bulb in the projector? I removed the bulb when it burned up and I am not sure whether it was due to a failed fan or simply the bulb.
Amazing! Thank you!!! Took a bit of effort to get the fan but in the end it worked like a charm!! Thank you for saving money!!!!
The pictures don't really do justice to how hard it is to pop the focal cap off. One actually has to pull pretty hard, I was afraid of breaking something, but it all worked out.
