Topic: Nintendo Switch fan makes a constant clicking noise

I just noticed this recently but as the title says the fan inside my switch has been making a clicking sound. I noticed it while playing BOTW a couple days ago. Has anyone else had this issue/know a solution? It seems to run fine still but its better to be safe then sorry.

@Nekoo77 Probably dust, but that should be easy to spot.

@Octane Yeah that's what I thought at first too, but I haven't seen any dust on it. and I move it around quite a bit so im not sure.

@Nekoo77 One of the blades could be broken, but if it looks fine, I wouldn't worry about it too much.

@Octane Alright, thanks for the advice. I guess ill find out eventually if something is wrong lol.

Dust, debris.....I suppose it could be bearings or out of balance. I suppose there's the off chance it's hitting one of its own wires if they've popped out of a retaining clip...no way to really see that easily by just peering in with a flashlight though.

Yeah that's true, and I don't trust myself to open it up and not break something. If it gets worse ill just have to send it in sadly.

Maybe it knows de wae? =P

Nintendo Switch Fan: "Hi guys, my name's Tim. I'm a big fan of Nintendo Switch. Lately I can't stop making this constant clicking noise..."

I'm sorry I don't have anything worthwhile to contribute to your problem except for this lame joke.
I'm just gonna leave now.
