Lighting not working RGB Hub

Hi, I've emailed tech support about 5 days ago and still haven't heard back so I'm posting here.

 

 

I have Three 120ML fans and two 140ML fans connected to my RGB hub that's connected to my commander pro and I'm having some trouble getting anything to work with software.

 

Icue software 4 of 5 fans light up however the fan in port 1 is partially with left, right and bottom only, If I plug any other fan into port one they work fine however if I plug them into port 2 after plugging into port 1 then they are fine and the first port is fixed while 3-6 does not work with 1&2 plugged in.

 

3 works if I unplug 1 and plug it into 3 then 2&3 work while 1,4.5 and 6 stop working.

2 gets a partial light with just the right side being green.

After reboot all fans stopped showing colors except number one and it's partial 3 again.

 

I do have a lighting node pro as well and this problem exists with that also so I'm thinking I got a defective hub with my combo deal.

 

Here's a video clip and a picture.

I'm inclined to think that you actually have a bad fan or two. Have you tried to rearrange the fans on the hub rather than plugging in one port or the other? The fans work in a series ... Fan 1 passes the signal to Fan 2 which then passes it to Fan 3 ... so one bad fan can make the whole thing go kerflooey.

Was a guy over on Reddit with a similar issue to this and it turned out to be both the Node Pro and the RGB Fan LED Hub.... can i find the thread??.. i can not!!!

 

either way.. did you go through the Ticket system??

Yes, I have my connections like this.

 

 

Front case fans connected to RGB 1-3, Top case fans connected to RGB 4-5, Hub connected to Commander Pro LED 1.

 

Lighting node pro connected to commander pro via USB port but has no other connections as I don't have any RGB strips

It looks like the fan hub is connected to the Commander Pro not the Lighting Node Pro. From the looks of it, you don't need the LNP.

I disconnected the lighting node pro and no results :/

 

I am thinking it must be a bad RGB hub

does it do the same thing in both LED channels on the node pro and both LED channels on the Commander Pro?

Yes, both channels on Node and pro have the same effect where most RGB doesn't work unless you plug them into one first.

 

Can't get more than two RGB fans working at a time and requires a lot of cable rearrangements to get two working.

I'm inclined to think it's either a bad fan hub or several bad fans ... or a combination of the two. I'd start with replacing the fan hub.

waiting on Corsair to email me back so I can set that up.

I checked Amazon it was $50 for the RGB hub...

Oh, no, that's not right. You can get the standalone RGB Hub direct from Corsair for about $10.

I have a corsair 220t case that comes with an RGB hub. but for some reason, only one fan is lighting up correctly and the rest are just white and flickering.
