Weber EX4 Fan Mod

I thought I'd bump this since there hasn't been any further discussion on the topic. For those who have made the modification, has it been successful?

Works perfect

Thanks Johnnybbq. My warranty expires in 2 months, I have the new fan and I'll give it a go then. My plan is to wire it such that I could return it to factory spec if need be.

I rebuild the connector myself.
Its called a Molex connector and you can buy the connectors easily online.
If you want to remove the pins from the existing connector, there are some nice tips on youtube,
I myself used a needle from the mrs

Sorry I haven't responded in a while. I have been using my SnS Kettle a lot lately modifying it to do direct heat, Hill Country Style BBQ.
Anyway, my EX4 is till working great with no problems. Have been doing a lot of stuffed zucchini and chicken wings and even seared some steaks. Still rolling along.

Glad to have found this thread. I bought that fan after purchasing an Ex4 a few years ago and had plans on figuring out the wires but never got around to replacing it.

Hi everyone

I figured out what my motherboard broke when connecting Noctua, I connected a fan that with SP marking according to the Q100 scheme.

These fans have different connection.

So you are good now?
Glad you got it figured out.
