Reset SMC fails to fix the problem of fan

So I tried to solve a problem where my fans are running overtime on my end 2011 MBP 13 ". I did a reset of the PRAM and SMC. However, I'm not sure that the SMC reset has never really worked. In the past when perform SCM restores, I remember that my magsafe adaptor change color, this was not past. The problem with the fans running continues. I tried several times, it doesn't seem to work.

I don't know that I'm following the correct procedure, taking the left SHIFT-control-option and power keys at the same time and releasing at the same time.

Any ideas how to solve this problem?

The fan or sensor is maybe defective.  Run Apple Hardware Test:

https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT201257

Note that an error free AHT is inconclusive.

Open the MBP and see if there is dust and debris inside.  If so, clean.

Ciao.

    Start your computer Safe Mode and check if you can successfully start.

    Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not work in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed.
