Question ARGB Fans spinning but not lighting up. Please help.

[gr0vegh0st]

I have 6 lian li sl inf 120 argb white fans in total, they are spinning but have no rgb.

3 fans are dasiy chained and a separate 3 fans are daisy chained, both are connected to sl infinity controller port 1 via splitter. controller is connect at 2 places to sata cable which is plugged into psu. microusb provided is plugged into jusb2 on my msi z390-a pro mother board. mother board bios is up to date.

my mother board has the 4 pin 12v rbg headers, not the 3 pin 5v argb header, but i didnt think this would matter since i am using the controller and the only thing connecting the controller to mobo is the micro usb to usb header. is this correct?

I have tried the following:

update motherboard bios
uninstall and reinstall l3 connect
swap micro usb cord to different usb header on mother board.
swap out controller and all connectors that come with fans.

please help.

What you have done all sounds correct. Within the L-Connect software tool is there a place where you can specify whether lighting control is done by this Controller box OR by input from a mobo ARGB header? Since you do NOT have input from the mobo, that option (if it exists) must be set to control by this Controller Hub itself. Then the software lets you set up the displays.

If that does not help, contact Lian Li Tech Support, You MAY have a faulty Controlller / Hub box.
