I would recommend you keep at least on spare.   This will happen again.

Print the service shelf - it will save your fans

In the print library is a oh so useful service shelf that hangs on the X horizontal rods.  It is used to service the extruder body and designed to hold the fans without breaking their little wires.

Eventually, you arw going to damage the fan fires to the point where it cannot be repaired.  I have been doing this for almost 4 years.  Sometimes, it is time to swap it out.

I don't thinks so, Why just, I don't think anything that adds to this can improve! can you explain how?

RE: Repairing the lead wire connection on the print fan

Does anyone know the polarity of the wires on the original fan? I need to replace mine and have an extra Fysetc DC5V radial fan.

I'm assuming that:

Red = Positive

Black = Negative

Yellow = Speed

Can anyone confirm this?
