    Ok so my Acer Aspire 3004 WLCi's Fan is acting up.

    It makes extremely loud ticking noises and gets hot real easily and likes to shut down from time to time.
    It also smells like its burning when used too much.
    I took it apart and cleaned it out so there isnt any dust or particles in the fan, but when i turned it back on the ticking is still there.
    Like it sorta sounds like something is loose maybe?

    Anyone know wht I can do?

    If the fan is broken you should check with Acer to get it fixed. Could also be the blade of the fan has gotten a little loose.
