Why this part gets replaced
A cooling fan gets replaced when it is loud, rattles, spins intermittently or has stopped entirely. The symptoms people notice first are the machine running hot, the case becoming uncomfortable to touch, and games or video calls stuttering after a few minutes as the processor throttles itself to avoid overheating. A seized fan will eventually cause shutdowns.
Making sure it is the right one
The part number is printed on the fan's own label, usually on the hub or the flat top face. Many laptops use a LEFT and a RIGHT fan that look nearly identical and are not interchangeable, so check which side yours sits on and match the connector and cable length.
What fitting it involves
Reaching the fan usually means removing the base panel and sometimes the board. Worth doing at the same time: clearing the dust from the heatsink fins and renewing the thermal paste, because a clean fan bolted to a clogged heatsink will not fix the temperature.

Before you buy
Will this heatsink fit my machine?
Match the part number printed on your existing unit to OSC-592. This one is listed for A1226. Apple and most laptop makers used several different parts in the same chassis and across left/right positions, so the model number of the laptop alone is not enough — go by the part number.
What condition is it in?
Used — sold as-is, not bench-tested. Every photo on this page is of the actual item you receive, not a stock image.
Is there a warranty?
Working units carry a 30-day store warranty. Items sold as-is or for parts are not covered — the listing says which.
Can I pick it up instead of paying shipping?
Yes. We are at 816 Franklin St A, Anthony, TX 79821. Call (915) 886-7098 and we will have it at the counter.
