HP laptop fan power cable

This internal power cable connects a CPU cooling fan to the motherboard in HP Compaq CQ42, G42, CQ62, G62 and G4 series laptops. It carries the three-pin power and control signals required by the original fan assembly. The part is supplied new for direct replacement during a fan swap. ||

Three-pin connector limits

The three-pin interface provides power and speed reporting but does not support PWM speed control, so fan speed is regulated by voltage rather than duty cycle. Pinout must match the laptop header exactly; an incorrect orientation can prevent the fan from spinning or reporting speed. Buyers needing a four-pin PWM connector for advanced speed profiles cannot use this cable.
