BitFenix 200mm spectre pro problem

UberGinge · 7 Aug 2012 at 09:03

Hi guys,

I recently purchased the above fan. When I put it in my system the leds do not appear to be working at all. The fan itself powers up and spins perfectly, it's just the leds on the fan itself do not appear to be working. Am I missing something that needs to be plugged in? I have tried it with the 3 pin and a molex but both return the same problem. Is the fan broken already or am I just being really thick and missing something entirely?

Thanks.

If i remember correctly, there should be a tiny jumper on the fan to bridge a connection for the LEDs?
I have the 140mm version at home, will check later.

Check the pictures there (check this one), it's the little wire loop you can see. Have you still got that?

Did you unplug the 2 pin connector on the fan? (separate from the 3 pin)

It came unplugged, so I will have to play with that when I get home. Thanks guys.

Update: It didn't have one with it, but I did have some older spectre fans lying about, so I used one from that and it's fine now!
