Replacement parts - cable and fan

Hello, I'm Vicente Martinez, from Spain.

I ordered a Mecreator 2 3D printer on May, 2017, via Amazon (order 407-8204653-8865903, 4th of may, 2017) and It has been working ok lately.

I have some problems with two pieces. The fan has been broken and I can't find for a replacement with the same 3-pin connection. (other fans available online have bigger connections and don't fit)

Is there any possibility of buying / ordering a new 3-pin fan?

There's a photo of the broken fan:

In case there is no way of ordering a new fan. ¿what is the 3-pin connector type? JST 2.0? JST-ph? JST-XT?


Another important issue is the cable connection between the main body and the extruder. It has a broken contact. I fixed it temporally by a smal welding, but I would like to get a new intact cable.

You can se the cable at these photos:

Is there any way of getting a new cable? It is a very important issue for me.

Again, if I can't order it... what's the denomination of the cable for ordering at an electronics shop? It's a 12-pin cable but I don't know the connector type name.

Thank you very much in advance.

Regards,

Vicente

What's your printer model, also Mecreater 2?
This printer needs a 24V fan.

Why 24V ? Picture says 12V, 0.09A, 3Pin, 40x40x10mm. Looks like the extruder fan (not the part cooling one - which has PWM).

According to Geeetech-Wiki (http://www.geeetech.com/wiki/index.php/GT2560), the fan 1-3 connections work with 12V. The PWM-fan is not specified (but may be 12V pk too ?).

Or is there something wrong ? Have you measured it ?
