Fan and overheating repair on the Dell Latitude E5420
The Dell Latitude E5420 cools itself through a small fan and heatsink that collect dust over time. We clean the whole cooling path and replace the thermal paste; on laptops this age a worn fan is common and we replace it.
Parts for a model of this age can be hard to find; we use tested replacements and tell you before ordering.
What we do
We strip the cooling system, clean the heatsink and fan, and replace the thermal paste on the processor and graphics chip. A worn or noisy fan is replaced.
Doing this early prevents the heat damage that leads to graphics chip and motherboard failures.
How long it takes. Usually done the same day.
Warranty
This Dell Latitude E5420 repair is covered by our 90-day warranty on parts and labour.
