I have a problem with my hacked switch: When I turned it on today the fan went berserk and spinned with full power.
I've already replaced the fan with one from a donor switch and no dice, maybe a resistor went bad idk.
Can someone give me a direction on where to check? I consider myself a hobbyist and despite the fact that I solder good when it comes to finding malfunctioning components I'm usually pretty bad, thanks!

I'll DM my Discord and we'll both look into the issue, I just woke up rn so I'll have to help in a while.
 
Maybe the thermals are high and therefore it goes crazy? Remove heatsink and apply new thermal paste might work

Nope, replaced the shitty thermal paste with arctic mx-4 and removed the copper sheet, so the heatsink is connected to the die.
