sounds like rail overload? try just 2 blades, not all 3!

Should really not be an issue.

Some cables i've had were weird and i had to mess around them with the multimeter before they worked. Not sure whats up with that.

I would get a PSU tester from amazon, you can get it pretty cheap or you can go nicer with PCIE testers and LCD.   That will allow you to measure current if it's working at all.

But if it truly is not powering on check and make sure paperclip is making contact with metal within it.  Make sure you have on a right combination of 2 wires.   And if that does not work you likely will need to email manufacture.

it finally powered ON, when no cable was attached to the MINER
then I powered it off, I connected it to the miner and after a minute or too it powered off again

The PSU does not turn ON at all!
The S7 miner works just fine, I tested it with another PSU

Does the PSU turn on at all? A bit unclear if both do not turn on or if only the miner does not turn on.

Looks like you need to make contact between the 2 round at the ''clip'' side of the mobo connector on the psu!

Do not connect to the last 2 as they are red!!!!(5volts?)

I have multiple Antminer S7, with multiple PSU's from corsair, EVGA, coolmaster, running 4 Antminer S7

Today my 5th Antminer S7 has arrived and I have also bought a 5th PSU for it
I got it brand new, connected all 10 PCI-e PINS to the S7, the MB cable, put the paperclip switch to it and tried to turn it on ... surprise, it won't work

Anyone has any experience with this PSU ? I have noticed the MB cable is a bit different than at my other PSU's
The MB cable is split in 2 in the part where it comes into the PSU, and 1 part has 12 small slots

here are the pictures of the MB cable :









I will give 0.05 BTC to whoever helps me solve the mistery !
