I exchanged it for a new one and the second switch makes absolutely no noise at all. Built with one quiet high efficiency cooling fan and powered by a short usb cord the built in temperature sensing technology ensures the unit will turn on and off automatically without any prompting from the user. If after cleaning a fan it doesn t move at all it s time to replace it. The fan on my second switch made a rattling noise which never existed in my first switch.

Its been like this for about 3 weeks now but the switch seems to be running completely normal otherwise. The fan or what i think is the fan on my switch runs makes a really loud noise whenever its powered on. I think it s worth noting that the replacement fan was a delta brand fan while the bad one was from foxconn. Loud enough where i can hear it over whatever game i m playing even when docked playing through tv speakers.

Remove the single 6 1 mm phillips 000 screw from underneath the kickstand. The fan noise started right out of the box right as soon as i turned it on. Docked or in handheld mode always very loud noise even in the menus. Step 1 rear panel.

Does your console overheat or freezes or cuts off during games. Add a comment. My fan was spinning very loud everytime the switch was not in sleep mode. Remove the four 6 3 mm tri point y00 screws from the rear panel.
