I'm having an issue with my PS3 fan not cutting off once the console is powered off. Not really a major issue but the only way to get it to go off is to just enter the homebrew that I use to control the speed once I go into it it will go to the normal speed and shut off when the console shuts off. I've never had this problem before I haven't switched firmwares in a while.

I am suspecting that everything on the console is off, but the fan. The chips play no part in the powering the fan, so it would not overheat. If the chips WERE running when the console is off and the fan is still spinning, then lowering the fan speed would cause damage because (since he is not already using webman software), then the console is doing exactly what it needs by default, and you would be jeopardizing it.
This problem will be from software or a short.
You could try reinstalling your cfw or another, in hopes that all your settings default..

I did fix it by re installing the cfw but I would still like to know how to access the settings with my pc

That's good to hear! Well. first off, make sure you are signed in into your Custom Firmware.
Then, get your PS3's IP Address, which can be located in the XMB Menu of your PS3. Go to Settings > System Settings > System Information
Once you have your IP, go to your Web Browser and type in your IP of your PS3. Now, you should be in multiMAN, i'm guessing. It should look like this:
From here, click on " Setup " at the top besides PS3MAPi and your CPU.
You can use my values that I put, but it is your choice. Just choose the values for your Fan Speed so it doesn't sound like it's blowing dragon breath and shit lol.

I tried that and it wouldn't pull it up and I'm not using webman for fan control...
