Could you be more specific? It cannot be spinning when it is powered down unless something is really wrong with it. Do you mean on idle? Also, can you check your temps?
Try as well to press FN+1. That forces the fan to maximum speed. If you see a change when you do then that may be part of the problem, maybe some sort of false contact (I am hardly an expert)
