Antminer D3 overheating AFTER cleaning the hashboard and removing the dust

Hi all,

so, all of my D3 units have been overheating for a while (85+) and some of the chips would often turn x.

I thought maybe it has sucked in too much dust so I opened them and it looked like it could use some cleaning (see image).

Unfortunately, after cleaning, the temperature is shooting up even higher and the ASIC is constantly rebooting, probably as a safety measure.

The fan speeds look ok and I can hear them ramping up to bring down the temperature till it gets too hot and the ASIC reboots.

Any idea what went wrong? I opened and cleaned my S9 and A3 too and they are indeed running few degrees lower than before! How come only the D3 units were screwed so bad? (see image)
