Fin stack sensor location?

Hey there. I have a 2013 11” macbook air a1465 with fans that run on full and CPU limited at 800mhz. Apple diagnostics reported fin stack sensor below limit. Is this sensor located on the logic board or the dc in board for this model? Thanks

While this might not be your issue it should guide you on what to look for: 13” MacBook Pro - 820-3115 runs slow (Th1h Fin Stack sensor failing)

The I/O board has the sensor on it near the heat sink heat transfer fin.

Ok so from reading that it sounds like the problem is connected to the main logic board. Thanks

Yes, Apple re-uses there SMC design. So it reasons it’s the same here.
