Help my pc case fan is not spinning unless I push it

[Kevv09]

My fan worked for 1 year really well and fast quiet now when I turn my pc on the led turns on but my fan doesn't move just a slight but doesn't spin completely then I open my case and I push it and it spins spins pretty fast but not as fast as it did I'm worried it's my psu because it's connected with a molex not chassis. Could it just be the fan itself dying would I need a new one please help!

if the are connect to a molex did you try to connect them to another molex pins in the first one could be sliding out .

Sounds like the fan is failing, just replace it.

I have sadly still nothing it once worked but then I shut my pc down over night and and the next day it didn't spin again could it be my psu? If it is why does everything work like cpu fan?

Ye I'm thinking of buying s new one also could it be my psu or just the molex or fan itself being old?

If everything else works just fine except the fan it is likely not the PSU.

Test the fan on another leg of molex connectors (or plug into motherboard header) and if it still does not work it is the fan

Everything works wonderfully and I tried to change different molex and it still didn't work and I can't try the mother board header because my fan is only molex tomorrow I will get a new fan and see hopefully it's not my psu

mostly look like the fan connector .

Are the fan blades covered with a heavy layer of dust? If so, they may be too heavy to start spinning on their own unless you manually spin it to start up.
