Did you go through Bitmain? Keep in mind that their warranty stickers are on the screws holding the fans in place - swapping it without their go-ahead could cause you warranty issues later. Just a consideration. Hope that's the solution for you.

Have you tried setting the fan manually - in the Miner Configuration Tab? You may get a false speed reading, but maybe you can force it to run at 80% to 100% (depending on your ambient temps) to get the temperature in line to run it until you can swap the fan.

BitMaxz posted a link to how to do it earlier.

I bought these back in January, so I believe they are no longer under warranty. (I think the warranty period is 180 days)

In the OP, the readings on the good fan are read properly on both fan connectors when the fans were swapped. I would think this is a bad fan indication (at least the counter/ticker part of it), not fan detector on the controller. Right?

Yes, that's what I'm thinking as well. I just ordered a new fan. I will post an update once it been replaced, in case anyone else runs into a similar issue.

Does it hash for a few minutes when you first reboot and then stop?

Ameador1,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Yes, the fans are definitely connected correctly. The miner has been running fine for months, it randomly stopped working late last night. I only swapped the connectors today to troubleshoot.

My S9 stops hashing a few minutes after booting up. I think I've narrowed it down to a fan issue. When working normally, both fan speeds are around 4000-6000 rpm.

This is what I'm currently experiencing:

- High temps on all 3 chips. 128/115/128

- Both fans are receiving power and spinning, so they're not completely dead.

- Before the miner stops hashing, the fan speeds are showing as follows:

Code:
Fan# 	Fan1 	Fan2 	Fan3 	Fan4 	Fan5 	Fan6 	Fan7 	Fan8
Speed (r/min) 0 0 4,440 0 840 840 0 0

- I swapped the two fan connectors on the board, and the numbers are reversed, which leads me to believe one fan is malfunctioning.

Code:
Fan# 	Fan1 	Fan2 	Fan3 	Fan4 	Fan5 	Fan6 	Fan7 	Fan8
Speed (r/min) 0 0 840 840 0 4,440 0

- Why are there 3 fan speeds showing? Could that mean it's a problem with the control board?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
