I got my laptop in Nov 2017 and the fan has always been a little noisy.  Recently, it started making loud pulsing noise, so I opened it up and found the fan pulsing as soon as I turned the laptop on (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_cOQXW9OBU).  I briefly searched the part online and only found it at HP for $77 which is not cheap.  Any suggestions to repair the fan or for substitiute parts are appreciated! Thank you.

 

The part number is 936276-001

@seemimi I appreciate the video and here's what I suggest to resolve the issue:

  • Updating your Notebook computer BIOS
  • Keeping notebook air vents clear and clean
  • Increasing the efficiency of the notebook to reduce heat
  • Using Windows Task Manager to identify corrupt processes
  • Selecting power save settings to shut off your computer when it is not in use
