Right now I'm using the rig I'm posting this problem with.
While the computer was on I looked at the back of my computer, I noticed the back fan (pull fan thats attached to the case then the corsair h60's rad) wasn't running at all.
I turned off the computer and unplug CHA_FAN1 (back fan), replug it in and still no power on the fan.
I then try CHA_FAN2 which is next to the mobo's green on light and cant even power up the rig.
I then try CPU_FAN which is what the PUSH fan was plugged into, basically swapping the plugs, now the PULL (back) fan is running and the front (push) isn't.

WTF is going on, my temps seem to be ok with only one fan running but I want both fans to, but after checking the MOBO fan sensor, it doesn't seem to sense the fan is even plugged in.


Power fan is the pump/cpu block.
 
Ok almost 1am here in cali, Im going to bed but I noticed none of the chassis' plugs work, perhaps they are just turned off?
Any advice/help is appreciated. THanks!
 
anyone?
None of my CHA_FAN plugs work, anyone think I can fix it in the bios? Or could it be the mobo?
 
Check your bios for fan xpert settings.

You may them tuned off. Did you recently update your bios?

Else check the fans on a different power source and lastly check the mb headers with a multimeter.
 
I couldn't find the fan xpert settings, but I turned them off on asus' AI suite.

I updated the bios when I first installed the OS and I am now on my 2nd fresh install.

Also I checked both fans on different power sources, and for some reason CHA_FAN plugs dont work, did I hit a switch on the mobo or something or could the plugs just be bad?

Getting a hold of asus tech support is a bitch, lol first asus board I've ever bought and it might be my last if its going to be impossible to get in touch with them.
