S-UnionNew Internal Cooling Fan Replacement for Nintendo Switch NS HAC-001 2017 Console (with Thermal Paste, Screwdriver and Spatula)

It works as intended. The fan is a little louder than the original but it dissipates the heat very well. Make sure to use your thermal paste too.

Works great! Easy to install.

I needed to replace teh fan on my Nintendo switch becuase it was dead and causing the switch to overheat. I purchased this fan and swapped it out with the original. When I first turned it on it sounded like a jet engine taking off. Super not happy about it. Upon inspection I noticed that the metal casing was slightly bent in and rubbing on the fan. I bent it back out with a screwdriver and voila! It works quietly as advertised. I read a bunch of reviews complaining about the noise level but I think the case was just rubbing on the fan. Do not be discouraged from purchasing this product.

I was really looking forward to fixing my switch on my own. I only needed the one tri-wing screwdriver and the fan so I got this kit that was specifically meant for the nintendo switch consile. The first problem is that the tri-wing screwdriver they provided is stripping the screws. The screws are flat inside. The screwdriver they gave me has a sharp tip. So my solution was to file down the tip so it would fit properly. I was able to remove 3 of the 4 screws which allowed me to bend and turn the backing enough to access the fan.Once I got the fan in I realized a huge design flaw. The switch fan had thick, reinforced holes for the screws, but this one has thin nodules that not only bend easily, but don’t allow the screws to hold it tight. So the fan wobbles. The foam tape really doesn’t help much.The fan seems to work slightly better than my broken one, so I’m keeping it, but still I feel as if I was ripped off.

My fan had stopped working (pro tip -- if your Switch isn't charging your joy-cons, that's another hint your fan isn't working and replacing it will fix that issue).I watched a YouTube video on how to replace the fan and bought this kit because it came with the screw drivers, prying tool, and the thermal paste needed to do the replacement.I'm very happy with this purchase.One more hint -- the tutorial I followed sad to turn on the Switch before attaching the back. If you do that, DO NOT put your sd card back in. I broke mine by trying to push the back case back on while the card was in.No harm done because I had uploaded everything to the cloud anyways. Just had to wait for everything to re-download to the replacement sd card.

I had to replace the internal fan on my Nintendo Switch, and this one did the job perfectly! Installation was straightforward, and the tools included were cheap but functional enough to get the job done. The fan is incredibly quiet—much better than the original one, which had started to get annoyingly loud over time. My Switch now runs smoothly and stays cool, even during long gaming sessions. The only reason I’m not giving a full 5 stars is because the tools could have been a bit sturdier, but for the price, it’s hard to complain. Overall, great replacement fan!

Replaced my old and faulty one with this and it’s back to working! Good quality! Hoping it’ll last long!

Good quality tools, and easy to install
