Did you try powering the controller and only one or two boards at a time, to make sure it's not the PSU overloading?

I tried today with 3 board connecting to power supply but it is running for sometime and getting off only psu is running
can it be problem of overheating means if the temp is getting higher so it is getting turned off ?

Yes i tried only connecting 2 board then also same problem only PSU fan is running

Try just the controller the 1 jack

See if you can connect to the controller and if the fans run.

With no fans running .

Could be dead fans. Or dead fan jack on controller or psu has weak volts.

Did you run the fans at 100% manual setting.

That can kill the fan or the fan jack.

Other trouble shooting do you have a working second s9.

If you do pull the psu and try it on the dead s9

If runs you have A psu issue.

yes i was running fan at 100% manual setting from around 2 months from now

ok one more issue , i poped the 2 good plades into a completly dead 1 fan unit case , fashed the controller with the 4.86th 2 fan 600 freq fw , since its only got one fan its throwing errors out and shutting down the miner .

can i just reflash the single fan fw and downclock it to 600 freq and run it like that ?

what single fan fw?

I am 90% sure that is for the s7 not the s9


why not buy a fan?

Hello when i am powering my s9 the power supply fan is starting but on miner no fan are working and no light near LAN port what can be the reason for this ?

did it ever work at all?

Yes completely well but now the miner fan and lights on miner are not just responding only like a off situation only what can i do now ?

sounds like you killed off the controller.

if you are in the usa bitmainwarranty has the parts.

https://bitmainwarranty.com/shop/products/us/s9-io-pcb-no-network-port/

https://bitmainwarranty.com/shop/products/us/s9-control-pcb-c5/

you will need both they add to 118 usd plus shipping.

contact them and ask for trouble shooting tips.

if you want you could check if the fans died if they died the gear won't run.
if the psu is supply really low power like 5 volt or 7 volts it also won't run.
they do have fans
https://bitmainwarranty.com/shop/products/us/fan_s7/

these on eBay should also work.

Hello when i am powering my s9 the power supply fan is starting but on miner no fan are working and no light near LAN port what can be the reason for this ?
Is the power supply output giving out 12VDC?
First thing I would check is if the power supply is okay.

Fortunately for me, I've had a very solid last 6 weeks. No real problems, I don't turn them off unless absolutely necessary. Just let them run and don't mess with them seems to work great.

so we need to celebrate when something should happen is happen

thanks i guess its worth a shot , i thought about a small drop of jb weld but i doubt it would conduct the heat from the chip to the heatsink

Looks line one of mine has had a more catastrophic failure.

That always happens for my miners too, during the startup for a short moment.
But they start hashing normally.

Yes I know that, so 4 hours later no change.

SSH'ed into the miner, looking at the logs seems there is a problem with my hosts DNS resolution
Ok, good to know that if that status stays for a longer period it could be caused for example by a DNS resolution problem.

Yep, put the IP of the pool in as a backup and it started right back up.


Spoke too soon, seems that my little DNS problem was perhaps a symptom of a bigger issue with my hosting provider, looks all sorted now though!
