tuyi APF002 Unitque A1286 Left,Right Side CPU Cooling Fan 2009 2010 2011 for Apple MacBook Pro

This was the only replacement fan available the same day for me, so it was a no-brainer to buy this to get my old Mac up and running again. The right fan was making quite a loud annoying sound, like the fan blades were grinding against the housing or something. I tried opening up the Mac and vacuuming out the dust, and even taking out the existing fan, disassembling and cleaning it. No luck, as it was probably a bad bearing causing the noise. If you are experiencing similar issues, try cleaning first, but before reassembling, power on the laptop to see if the noise is eliminated.If you have ever replaced anything inside your Mac, you probably already have the tools. If not, you'll need a #0 Philips head screwdriver, a T6 star screwdriver, and a spudger or tiny 2 mm flat blade screwdriver. With the #0, remove the 10 screws (7 short and 3 long) on the bottom of the laptop. Remove the bottom and face the vents in the back of the machine toward you. The fans are now oriented to match the left and right replacements. You can't really mix the two fans up since they're totally different mounting hole patterns. Using the T6, remove the 3 screws holding each fan. Using the spudger or flat screwdriver under the wiring harness connector, gently pry up the connector from side where the wires exit the connector. It should easily pop off. Remove the fans and install the replacements, press the connectors into the sockets, reverse the disassembly procedure to reassemble your laptop, and you are done.The new fans are exact replacements—same brand and part no.—for the old ones. The laptop is now nearly silent. Ahhh. Given that the old fans lasted 9 years with the Mac running almost continuously, I hope I won't need to replace these anytime soon.

I replace the interla fans my self. It was very easy and they are still working after 3 years.

This is only the first day review. Appears to be the same fan as what was already in my macbook pro. My old fans were producing a whirring noise that sounded like an airplane taking off. After the new fans were installed, they just sound like fans. Very cheap compared to alternatives.

I was not even aware there were two fans in my computer until I use a software program to check my computer. So I ordered a new set of cooling fans. They are extremely quiet and easy to install. Hopefully I will not need to get another set but if I do, I will be ordering from them

perfect!

Work great!

Got the job done! No more fan rattle. Thank you!

Great fans! Will purchase again from this seller.
