The manufacturer did not use an SDXC capable chip, so you are restricted to 16G or less from their documentation (32G SDHC may work).
There is the chance that the micro sd card needs to be inserted upside down.
Or, the contacts are dirty, or you need to keep pushing the sd card physically during the whole process.
And, some control boards might be missing the micro sd control chip for unknown reasons.
Sadly, there is some malware out there that triggers the efuses with the malicious intention of blocking you from removing out their malware hash stealing fw. Some spread in Russia, China, etc. This is why you must never leave default or simple passwords in the miners, or have windows PCs in the same LAN.

Thanks mikeywith, I can't try with custom firmware because i update antminer firmware and then my SD card is not work.
May be i need to buy another control board to install custom firmware.

It's unlikely that you are going to need a new control board, flashing these gears with an SDcard is a bit tricky, some sdcards just don't work, you need to try a few of them before giving up, try the one with the small size, also, make sure you are following the instructions step by step.
As far as i know there is no problem with the PSU missing fans, it may stop providing power if overheated. And yes there are many people doing immersion with Braiins OS+ with all the S17 family.

May be i need to buy another control board to install custom firmware. Or i try another way to low noise.

I don't see why you can't, you will have two problems you need to fix.
1- The miner's fans, since you have to remove those for immersion cooling the control board won't allow the hash boards to hash, and thus, you have two solutions, running custom firmware like Vnish which has an option to disable the fan check, the other solution would be a fan simulator, it's something you can find online that "tricks" the control board by giving it a false signal similar to the one it would get from the actual fans.
2-The PSU's fans:
This will be a bit more tricky to solve, the PSU needs the fan to be spinning in order to function, so not sure how you would bypass that, however, I believe the control board controls the PSU, so my guess is that these custom firmware will also handle the PSU fans when you activate immersion cooling option, to confirm this, head to their official topis and ask there, check AwesomeMiner, Asic.to and BO+.

Thanks for your information.
I never heard someone succeed running a t17 in mineral oil it won't work on t17 with original firmware it will detect some error like no fan or slow but if you could flash it with custom firmware like braiins OS it might work.

And try to ask if someone succeeds in running t17 with mineral oil.

Hello guys,
I am newbie about mining and i need to know many things about mining with miner.
I run T17 in my house and it's run so noise. I try to low noise but not work. So, i google about to silent miner and found that cooling and silent can be fix by sink the miner to the dielectric fluid tank.
In video, they showed with s9 and PSU is out of the tank but T17 is attached PSU. So i curious "T17 whole machine can be sink in dielectric fluid tank?" and is there any problem?
please suggest do and don't things.
