Is it possible to replace a broken fan connector?
I was trying to replace my fan on my MacBook pro 13" late 2012 and accidentally ripped off the connector for the fan to the computer. Is it possible for me to buy a new connector and connect it myself?
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

I have also popped the fan connector... my problem is that i am missing one of the four solder pads that allow the cable to connect to the mother board. Sorry the mother board is missing one of the solder points that allow for the connection between the fan connector and the motherboard.
I tried to chip off a small piece of soldier and managed to soldier all the 4 pins to the mother board. My problem is that when running the mac fan control my rpm's for both fans are over 7K...
Im afraid when soldiering the pins i held my iron too long on the plastic and melted the solder inside?
Should i get a new fan? any suggestions will be most helpful
thank you for your time
