NetServer 1000r Fan Speed Fault

[bruno roncoroni]

Hello,

I have a Netserver 1000r and TopTools indicate a Fan Speed fault
Chassis Fan No 1

Which is this ventilator
Where it localised in the server
Thank You for your assistance

The server should be stamped with indicators on the fans. That should lead you to the failed part.

Is the server operating?

I'd be careful operating it with a fan offline.

HP Hardware should be contacted.

Hi Chassis Fan No 1 is one of the small fans on the metal case which cools the PCI board, etc.

You can have a look at the systemboard and locate the fan connector labeled CHA_Fan 1. It's located left of the memory DIMM slots. just follow the cable to the fan and you've found the bad guy ;-)

Unfortunately HP doesn't sell these fans as a sparepart, you'll have to swap the whole server chassis....

Marco.

Yes, Chassis Fan 1 is one of the 40mm fans blowing away from the PCI slot.

I would recommend purchasing a fan here:

its $3.99+ shipping... get two, and put the spare one in the case.

or if you never want to worry about it again:

its $10.99

Yours....
