dmwardjr ot toptek or anyone else,

After getting the wrong fan ( 3,9 A ), I connect fan directly to PSU ( over MOLEX ). Fan is starting OK, but S5, doesn't start to hash and I get red light back on S5. It was turned off completly from power for a week. Is it burned ? See picture below. Everthing seem normal, except red light and no hashing.

Solutions ? Do I buy recommended fan from toptek ?

I wonder if there was any modification to the fan code in the last firmware update, if they're checking for a / minimum RPM. I don't think so though as others are running directly from molex. Do you have a rubbish 3-4 pin fan you could plug in and hold to see if it will start? If not, PM me the same status screenshot but with pool info and I'll check that.


I think they did  i was  about to say plug the stock fan back in , i think some one else said a fan needs to b plugged in now .


I don't know that firm ware tends to make all my S5 lose speed over time , I'm waiting either for BFG support to happen which is soon Luke told me or kano to release his update to the s5 which i know will fix all most all the S5 issues .


I plug in another motherboard fan, beacuse my stuck fan is broken. The fan is 0,2A and the red light in front dissapear. I noticed that red LED lights on both hashing boards are not ON. Like there no electricity is coming to boards. On working S5, they are both ON. Now I will try reset with hole in front.
