Here is the order information for the Sun Ultra1 CPU cooling fan:

You need Field Change Order FCO #A0089-1, which replaces the CPU cooling
fan with a better one. Call Sun (800-872-4786) with the Ultra1's serial
number and Sun will ship you the fan FREE.

The Part Number 540-2761 listed on the Sun Sunsolve website for this problem is
NOT the correct part; this is the fan on the front of the cabinet.
