5H40S72906 / 5H40S72907 - CPU Cooling Fan with Heatsink for ThinkPad E14 E15 Gen 1

Description

The 5H40S72906 CPU cooling fan with heatsink assembly is designed for select ThinkPad E14 Gen 1 and ThinkPad E15 Gen 1 laptop models using UMA / integrated graphics configurations. This complete thermal cooling assembly includes the fan, heatsink, heatpipe, radiator fin stack, and motherboard fan cable connector needed to help restore proper CPU cooling performance.

This part is commonly replaced when the laptop fan becomes noisy, stops spinning, produces fan error messages, runs at unusually high temperatures, or when the heatsink assembly is damaged during service. It is intended for systems that match the original heatsink/fan layout, mounting points, connector style, and FRU part number.

Recommended Thermal Paste

For proper installation, the old thermal compound should be fully cleaned from the CPU and heatsink contact surface before reinstalling the cooling assembly.

We recommend using Shin-Etsu G751 high-performance thermal grease for CPU and heatsink installation.

⚙️ Fit Notes

• Please compare your original fan/heatsink assembly, FRU part number, mounting points, cable connector, and heatsink shape before ordering.
• This assembly is intended for UMA / integrated graphics configurations only.
• This part may not fit models with discrete graphics or a different heatsink layout.
• The compatible model number alone is not always enough to confirm fitment because the same laptop series may have different internal cooling assemblies.
• Professional installation is recommended to avoid damage to the motherboard, fan cable, heatsink, or CPU contact area.
• Thermal paste is required during installation. Old thermal compound should not be reused.
