Xbox One S/X Fan Replacement – Mission Viejo & Orange County
The Xbox One S and One X each use one main cooling fan that pulls air through the heatsink and out the back. Like any motor, the fan wears out. Its bearing starts to grind or rattle, the fan wobbles, or it slows down and stops, and without it the console overheats within minutes.
We order the right replacement fan for your exact model when you drop off your console. It takes about 2 business days to arrive, and we install it the day it does. While the console is open we also deep clean the heatsink and vents, then test it under load to make sure it stays cool and quiet.

Turnaround: The replacement fan takes about 2 business days to arrive, and we install it the day it does, so most fan replacements are done in 2–3 business days.

Signs Your Xbox One S/X Needs This Repair
- The fan grinds, rattles, clicks or buzzes.
- The noise changes when you tilt the console or set it on its side.
- The fan doesn't spin, or barely spins, and the console shuts off soon after you start a game.
- A fan blade is chipped or broken, or something got inside the fan.
Do I need a new fan or just a cleaning?
A fan that is loud but smooth usually just needs a cleaning. Grinding, rattling, clicking or a fan that won't spin usually means the fan itself has worn out. Our diagnosis is free, so if you're not sure, bring it in and we'll tell you.

Not sure which model you have?
Look for Model 1681 (One S) or Model 1787 (One X) on the label on the back or bottom of your console.
Not sure what repair you need?
If the fan is loud but sounds smooth, try a Xbox One S/X Deep Cleaning first. If the fan stopped spinning right after you or someone else opened the console, the fan's connector may have been torn off the motherboard: see Xbox One S/X Fan Connector Repair.
Still under Microsoft's warranty?
If your console is still under the manufacturer's warranty and wasn't dropped or damaged, check with Microsoft first. Opening the console here may affect that warranty.
