[QUOTE="Tom Manchester, post: 89570, member: 82"] Re: PSA: Blow it out yer amps! In my previous job servicing LCD projectors, I often had to clear out immense amounts of chalk dust that had accumulated in the fans. In one particular model, it had 3 of the little squirrel cage style fans. If you blasted those with air and let them spin freely, it would either kill them completely or they would make an obnoxious buzzing sound. It happened about 50% of the time. Since then I've concluded it's a lot easier just to throw something to jam the blades while cleaning stuff than deal witha fan replacement. [/QUOTE]
