Fractal Design Define R4 LED not working.

[kimboslice]

Hi all. I just bought the Fractal Design Define R4 case along with the Asus Maximus Hero Motherboard yesterday, and after I switched on the PSU, only the motherboard Start button lit up. I have put all the Power LED cables in the right spot, like the manual told me to, but the LED on the Fractal Design Define R4 would not light up, nor will it turn on my system. Do I have to manually set that up in the bios? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Check your front panel connections again. The led lights are polarity sensitive. You must have plus to plus for them to work.
The front panel connector has power and reset wires that also need to be connected to the motherboard for the front panel switches to work.

Hi,

I think i've already done so. Is this correct, because I had it like this the whole time.

I also tried putting them on the other side where it says power LED, but still no difference. Also I tried changing it from HHD LED to Power LED, but still nothing.

Alright, so I just found out what's wrong. I happened to hit the jackpot, and got a defective case. (I think) The wire that connects to the PSU from the case controller is frayed. I noticed this morning it was bent, but didn't think it would be a big deal. I'm pretty angry since this was my first time ever building a computer. Thanks for your guys help.
