Hi-
My mac has recently beeen running a bit warm and I thought something was wrong with the fan. So I ran a diagnostic and got this error: apple error 4mot 1 40000002 exhaust 0. I read somewhere that it has to do twith the fan. Could someone give me more details?

Thanks a bunch!
 
Yep, I'm totally comfortable getting into my Mac. I have a MACBOOK 13.3/2.4/BLK/CTO. Do you have any suggestions for this? I actually think that it was my breaking into my computer that caused this problem and that I possibly didn't reinstall the fan properly.

Any ideas, I'd love to hear them.

Thanks a bunch!

Sounds reasonable to me -- the only way to find out is to open 'er back up, no?
 
Yep, I think you all are right, I just need to open her back up. Thanks for the ifixit suggestion- that site is super! We used it to break her open the first time. Any ideas on how to test the fan once we have the mac open? I want to make sure it's working before I close it up again. It's a major pain to break it open :0)- there are way too many screws and they are all different sizes.

Thanks again for the help,
Lani
