Front case fans not working

[Bob H]

Hi, I have a Lian Li 61 aluminium case which has 2 fans at the bottom
front. I have just found out that both of these fans are not
working,even though they are both free and connetecd to the front
connection board.
Any ideas please?
Thanks

Do they work when connected directly to 12V power from the power
supply? If not, they are defective; if so, there's a problem with the
connection board that supplies them.

It could also be a problem with the 3 speed switch.

What or where can I connect the fan header to as in direct to 12v,
because the fan header is a 3 pin type connection.
Thanks

Plenty of places to order an adapter from online (and most computer
shops sell them as well, at least they do here).

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:

I noticed in my Antec SLK3000B case that when the switch was set to low
speed the fan sometimes wouldn't start up of its own accord.

Yes I guess there is, and I have been looking online. I found one on
overclockers which I'll order Monday, as I want to ask them something as
well.
I've just ordered myself some of the round ide cables off ebay.
Thanks
