Troubleshooting cooling fans

Prerequisites

CAUTION: The power supply units (PSUs) are hot swappable. Remove and replace only one PSU at a time in a system that is turned on. Leave a failed PSU installed in the enclosure until you are ready to replace it. Operating the system with a PSU removed for extended periods of time can cause the system to overheat.

Steps

  1. Log in to the CMC web interface and identify the faulty fan. For more information, see the Dell PowerEdge FX2 CMC User’s Guide at Dell.com/esmmanuals.
  2. Open the system. See Opening The System.
  3. Reseat the fan.
  4. If the fan functions properly, close the system.
  5. If the fan is faulty, install a new fan.
  6. Close the system.

    If the replacement fan does not operate, see Getting Help.
