Are instructions, on how to replace the fan, included? My TV is Sony KDS-60aA2000?

No instructions because it just plugs in. We had a repairman from Best Buy put it in. Right away it started making a noise, although at first it worked. We left the tv on for awhile and the tv went out and the fan didn't work. Waste of my money. Best Buy put one they had in and it has been working ever since.

No. It just plugs in. Be sure to install it with airflow going in the proper direction for proper cooling.

There are no instructions included with the fan. I went on YouTube and referenced the following DIY video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cGzpdf4GmIBest of luck.

No, but it is readily apparent which way it goes in. Take a photo of the old one before you remove it and you should be able to get it in right. Took all of ten minutes.

Googled it and got a great video - step by step. It's really simple and easy. You can do it I'm sure.

I don't know about replacement parts, hardly used the fan but it worked fine when I did, what do you need? The unit is quite generic, you should be able to get any parts for it locally.

I took it out, since my chassis do not have the space in front (there is a BIG front cover). It seems to be a standard 120mm fan, so it certainly is replaceable.

yes, you are going to need to take it in to a repair shop. If you do a search on the internet you will find many others that have had this problem. TV's now days don't get repaired in the true sense. complete boards are just replaced

I'm not sure. Our tv was not making any noise. It simply would shut off. After looking online at different forums, I was able to determine I needed a fan replacement by the number of times the red light near power button would blink. The fan fixed our problem and tv does not shut off anymore. If your buzzing noise is coming from back of the set and not speakers, it most likely is the fan. There are forums that say u can use compressed air to try and clean out the debris...but we found it was only a temporary solution and buying the fan was worth it! I recommend you Google "sony buzzing noise" to see what others say. Hope this helps! I'm not sure. Our tv was not making any noise. It simply would shut off.

You can fix the fan yourself. This user posted a video showing how to do it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjRDjOL8nCY My penguin model started to develop a whirr, so I followed the instructions in the video and it's now back to quiet. If your fan is totally dead and you're out of warranty, it's easy to replace. It's just a standard 2-pin 80 mm computer fan. They run about $5 on eBay. Unscrew four to six screws on the bottom of the basin, lift off the top or bottom section, unscrew four screws holding the fan, disconnect the fan connector (it's not soldered, just attaches to a pair of pins on the control board,) plug in the new fan and replace the screws. Seriously, a monkey could do it.

Good question. Now I want to know, too. Seven minutes later - I resorted to reading the manual that came with the fan. If you no longer have it, try downloading it from Panasonic's website.

You must remove the fan assy and the battery and battery tray or you cannot get the old mount out and the new mount in. Otherwise not a difficult job.

Careful on this one, we ordered for the exact system you did and did not get the correct version of the fan. I think there are two versions and we ended up having to order the fan we needed off ebay at the end.

Only the fan unit is included. The fan cord is not part of the package. I reused the cord from my existing fan.

Not that I have been able to figure out. Certainly not easily. I wish I could attach a photo to show the backside of the fan. In the back there are four accessible Philips head screws. There is, however, a 5th made inaccessible by the fold-up base. I cannot see a way to remove the hinged base. Even if you were to remove the base, the wiring from the charging port and battery compartment (in the base) of the fan might be damaged if the blade casing were removed. That said, the blades are thin and I have a total of 3 of these fans, one for over a year. I haven't yet had a real problem with dust buildup on the blades. I'm very happy with mine.

same prob - no screws included. otherwise, this is a great fan.Edit: i called customer service, and they were very pleasant and sent out the screws. So it is a bit of a hassle, but at least it can be resolved.Anyone know what the 2 screws are for? the set of 4 clearly go up through the bottom of the base and connect to the unit, but i don't see where the other pair goes.

If the remote hand held unit button configuration is the same as pictured, it should be a replacement. If not, then you will need to replace both the remote hand held unit and the receiving unit that is inside the fan housing.

We didn't check the model number on our fan before ordering, we took a risk, but it worked. I wish I could tell you more, but the fan is in a vaulted ceiling and we got rid of the paperwork for it long ago. I would speak directly with Hunter on this one.

You may have to scab in the connector from the old fan (solder or wire nuts will work)

I followed C. Johnson's advice above and also was successful in getting the fan to run by simply cleaning it. Just be careful to put things back the way you found them and unplug before working on the set. Thank you to C. Johnson..just saved a lot of $ and hassle.

Yes, it is a complete replacement for the fan unit. Unplug the old one and plug in the new one. There's one screw to remove and replace.
