Hi everyone.
Since last year, I've a problem with my fans.
For 9/10 of the time, the fans are working when I turn on my computer, but the LEDs are turned off.
A year ago everything was working well.

What could it be?

Specs:
Motherboard: ASUST PRIME B450M-K II
Fan controller: GYPCB-20010-3
Fans: Raijintek

Thank you

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time. In your predicament, include the make and models of your fans too.

What has changed in the past year? Have you seen if uninstalling and reinstalling your ARGB software changes anything? I'm assuming your controller is tethered to the motherboard's ARGB header. Have you tried removing some of the ARGB devices hooked up to the controller, off, to see if the controller is faulty/failing? Have you tried hooking your ARGB controller to another SATA power source/harness?
