[SOLVED] Loose Plug Dangling Inside Tower

[jrarmstrong]

Hi guys,

I just opened my PC tower to check for dust and noticed the fan plug dangling loose. Is there a reason it would not have been connected?

If not where should I plug it in?

Thanks

Welcome to the Forums
depends on the plug.
it may be a spare power cable and its fine. which cable, can you take a pic, post to an image host and post the link here?

Hi R_1,

There is only one plug on the fan as far as I can see. Here's a photo:

that is the power cable for the rear fan. the clean one is unplugged. on the right edge of the picture you see the sys_fan3 port, you can plug the small connector there, the large 4 pin can be plugged into the power supplys molex connector.
you only need one not both, either the sys-fan header OR the molex.
