What else can I help you with?
The fan in a 250-watt power supply is malfunctioning. what action should you take?
Remove and replace the power supply.
Why does the power supply unit have a fan built?
To keep the power supply cool. If there were no fan the power supply would overheat and fail.
When do you need to replace the computer power supply?
When your computer will not power on. When the cooling fan of the power supply has failed. When the amount of hardware in use in your case exceeds the power capability of your power supply.
Does the fan automatically come on in a power supply unit?
Yes
Where is the first place you should start when diagnosing a hardware problem?
check the power supply

How can you tell if the power of the power supply is on?
Most have a fan in them and you can hear when it is on.
What is the main purpose of a fan in the power supply on ATX systems?
cooling the power supply circuity
What does it mean when there is no power light and you cannot hear the cooling fan running in a computer?
When there is no power light and you cannot hear the cooling fan running in a computer, it likely indicates a power supply issue. This could be due to a faulty power supply, a disconnected power cable, or a problem with the motherboard. It's recommended to check the power cables and connections, test the power supply, and seek professional help if needed.
Can I replace my power supply fan if it isn't moving?
Well yeah you should. If you dont ur computer will not work.
Does the power supply provide power to a CPU fan or case fan?
yes, the power supply provides power specifically to the motherboard in turn dispersing power to all components plugged into the motherboard, hope this helped :)
What will happen if my computer power supply's fan stop working?
The electronics inside of the power supply will overheat and cause the power supply to quit working. There might even be a small fire inside, or the semiconductors may crack or explode. So it is best to repair or replace the power supply when the fan starts to malfunction, since it will be easier to fix. If you must operate it that way, you should take steps to reduce power consumption and make sure the fan is running each time. Some even insert things in there to start the fan if it is stalled, though that has its risks.
What does a power supply fan do?
A power supply fan keeps the power supply cool. The semiconductor components get hot in a switching power supply, and this fan keeps things cool and helps prevent the power supply from damaging itself from excessive heat. As an example, when you play games, the video card requires a lot more current. That means the power supply has to work harder. The switching transistors in the power supply have to operate at a higher frequency and pass electricity through them a higher percentage of the time. That in turn causes them to get hot. The fan helps pull this heat away and protects these components.
When do you need to replace the computer power supply?
When your computer will not power on. When the cooling fan of the power supply has failed. When the amount of hardware in use in your case exceeds the power capability of your power supply.
Why No power to heater ac fan inside car?
If you don't have power to your heater or ac fan, it could be a fuse or a relay. You should check your owner's manual to determine which fuse or relay affects your fan.
Does the CPU supply provide power to a CPU fan or a case fan?
Neither, The CPU is the Central Processing Unit, it only processes information and bits of data the computer sends thru it. The motherboard supplies power to the case fan AND the CPU fan, which is supplied power from the PSU (power supply unit)
