Opened the box. Disconnected the fan. Took off the electric tape. Made sure all the wires were ok. Plugged the fan back in. Turned on the box. Fan works perfectly. Lol wow

Question though. Why is the plastic piece next to the WP screw even there? What purpose is it serving? I couldn't figure out how to put it back in, so I'm about to close the box without it.

Edit: Nevermind, I just put it back in.

It sounds like you've experienced the same issue as me, although I've yet to fix it.

My fan is often audible, even when running idle. It hasn't always done this however. I'll try taking it apart tonight as you've done and see if it helps.

My fan runs at idle now, too. I think this has only been happening since Kodi 15/OE 6. I'm running OE 6.0.1 generic on Asus 2955u Celeron. Maybe the egl builds have a fan fix? I thought I read that a while back, but not sure if that's for the same issue.

Just an update on my side, I removed the fan and found the heatsink to be clogged with dust - cleaned and now appears to be OK.
