I don't know if this is hardware related or more to software, but I know frodocooper will handle this in no time  Grin

so the old school trick that works on S9,S9j and S9i does not work on the K/E version as well as all the new models such as S17pro/+ T17/e, I have no idea why does Bitmain continue to try and limit users on what they can do with their miners, but well, everything is done for a reason, which in this case, does not really matter.

so just to recap, in all other S9 models all you had to do is right-click on the miner setting page, hit inspect you get this.



you go to the line where it says fan_ctrl and delete that "none" part, then you hit enter and the fan settings appear on the web page.

well sadly this does not work anymore on the K version, and here is what happens when you do the same thing.



Nothing!

what Bitmain did was put all of these "perks" under one class/set and disable all of it, so it's like every child will inherit the default setting in the parent class header, which is this one

Code:

so after you delete the "none" part from the fan_ctrl , you need to delete it from the class line too, like so



and bingo!! your fan control is enabled.
