Need help with my PSU for Antminer S3

[RobbieRoor]

I recently purchased an s3 from a seller here on the site. I went out and purchased a Corsair CX850M PSU, but I cant seem to get the PSU to actually turn on? I have tried multiple outlets, all of them have worked for other things but not the PSU. I am doing something wrong or is it just a faulty PSU. I have the four PCI-E cables plugged into the top of the s3 and ran back to the PSU but nothing. Halp halp please!

There are several diy on what you have to do to get your psu to function!  It requires a jumper wire between a green and black wire.  Look it up :-p

Yeah i just found that post, but apparently the power supply I purchased has all black wires. There are no colored wires on the 24pin connector lol

You would need to do it by location instead of by the color of the wire, so top row pin 3 and 4.

Awesome thank you very much, I'm sure this will do the trick! At work so I can't really try right now. Thanks again!
