[mystvearn]

I have a side fan 80mm with 3 LED in it, One of the LED is blinking. What does this mean? The LED is almost dead. Sometiems it blinks, sometimes its ok. Its not suppose to blink.

hhmm too bad , can u return it for a new one?
i 'm guessing it's a bad contact , probably a broken contact or cable ..since u ask i guess u can't solder it urself? just asking ..
maybe if u allready have it for a while it's the led which is dieing , it's replacable but u need to do it urself then ...

No, its a sidefan, with 3 led's. red, green, blue, which emits light dircetly into the fan while its spinning, giving this blurr effect. While writing this, the blue led is not blinking anymore.

Could be that its just a little loose, and the vibration of the fan was/is messing it up.
