Fan Not working at all
So I'm facing a tricky one here
I got a macbook pro early 2015 ( A1502)
So the fan was working at maximum speed
Did the SMC and everything system related - nothing happens
Installed Macs Fan Control.. Lowered the speed to the lowest.. Seems like it doesn't have an effect at all
So,
I decided to open the laptop and check what's going on
Found out that the mac was previously repaired
And who ever did made a power shortcut through the motherboard ( i don't know exactly how to explain it so I've uploaded a picture)
So I've replaced the fan hoping that it will fix this problem
But after booting the fan is not working at all
Did the smc again, nothing happens
I just want to know either the problem is in the fan pin (so i can order a new one) or the logic board itself.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Es esta una buena pregunta?

Lets get a bit more info here. First see if you can take a few pictures of the logic board where the fan cable was connected as well as the proper fan connection. I'm wondering if more patching about was done.
I would also run this app TG Pro. Do make sure you kill of MacsFanControl as you don't want it running at the same time as TG Pro. I find TG Pro is just a better solution than most everything else.

I can't download it right now as I'm dealing with a wifi issue at my workshop.
But MacsFanControl indicated that the CPU Temperature is between 90° and 100°.
So i would like to ask is it the normal temperature or I'm having an overheating issue since the fan starts working again as it turns out that the fan of this Macbook model only works when the CPU Needs to cool down

Thats running high! TG Pro offers a more detailed view on the other thermal sensors and the fan RPM info. If you buy the full version you'll also gain additional diagnostics of the other SMC sensors.
