Hi. When i got home from school, i discovered that my laptop fan doesn’t work. Nothing has happened to the computer. I haven’t dropped it, or bumped it into anything. My CPU reaches as much as 105°C when i’m browsing the internet.
Have you actually opened up the Mac and verified the fan doesn’t spin or you think it doesn’t work because of the temperature ? If fan doesn’t spin indeed it may be the fan broke, although they seldom go bad or a resistor on the rail supplying power to it. Easiest thing to try would be replacing the fan. If that doesn’t work some testing would be needed and possibly a microsoldering repair.
