CPU/GPU fan replacement advice requested

In my laptop ZBook 15 G6, one of the fans starts making noise, rattles. (expected L30894-001 or L30895-001) The laptop is now almost 4 years old and this seems to be a known issue.

Does anybody have an idea how 'difficult' this exchange of both fans could be?

In terms of experience, I'm used to work with fine mechanical parts and not a total newbie in electronics. I also have an ESD bracelet and some small tools.

Thanks in advance!

HP Zbook 15 G6 disassembly instructions by HP can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7392w2ta...

I'm indecisive yet to do this myself or get help.

Hi @frank31876

Even better is the maintenance and service guide for the laptop.

Go to p.53 to view the procedure to remove/replace the fans.

According to the parts list on p.21 Items #14 & #15 the fan part numbers are either L68840-001 or L68841-001 depending on which GPU is installed.

Hi Jayjeff,

What puzzles me in the documentation is that the parts: L68840-001 or L68841-001 is choosing between the GPU's where the left hand side fan (14), as mentioned on page 53, is for the CPU.

Assuming the fan in the left (14) is for the CPU, and the fan at the right (15) is for the GPU. With the selection criteria provided of 2 different GPU's I'd expect 3 different numbers.

1st: CPU side

2nd & 3rd: GPU side, 2 choices

In the meantime, it will be solved a bit differently.

Since this is a company laptop, HP has been requested for a quotation.

Regards from the Netherlands,

Frank

Easiest way to know for sure is to open the laptop and check what part numbers are on the fans themselves. Usually the part numbers are printed on them

Interesting that in the manual, they show the part number for the set of fans and not for the individual fans themselves.

Good to know.

Thanks for the feedback.

Cheers

My CPU fan in my Zbook G6 died. My NVME SSD drive temp is 83C!

I think it's the CPU fan - when the laptop is upside down with the back facing away, it's in the upper left corner and some wifi wires have to be unplugged to replace it. Do you agree that's the CPU fan?

Where did you get your fan set? I can't find it on HP's support site. Any links would be appreciated.

How difficult was it to replace the fans? Any special tricks for things like popping hidden plastic retainers loose without breaking plastic?

Use the maintenance guide linked in the Chosen Solution above to access the fans in the laptop and check what the part number is on the fans.

Reason is that the part number you supplied I think is for the fans in a HP Zbook Studio 15 G6 model and that the part numbers listed above are for the fans in a Zbook 15 G6 (non studio model)

There's a comment in the above answer by @frank31876 on May 24th 2024, where it shows that the HP kit part number L68840-001 contains the fans with the model numbers that are the same as what are in your model.

I don't know if the L30938-001 fans you got are compatible or not but I would try to get the fans with the same part number rather than the ones you received as then you know that they will fit and work as expected.
