my s17+ powers on, and every 10 seconds sounds like it tries to make fans speed faster but cant, then this process repeat, also the leds go off and on again.

See Video https://streamable.com/ath5kv

What Ive tried.
Change control board into a different working S17+ PSU
Change Ribbon cables working in another S17+
Change PSU


The control board is the problem

I visually inspect control board but cant see any problems, also cleaned board with alcohol.

I have tried to reflash using a 32gb sd card and downloading firmware from https://m.bitmain.com/support/download

S17+ from list, select firmware button, downloaded https://file12.bitmain.com/shop-product/firmware/322e2381-46b7-4311-9a6a-fb6951652302/2020/06/18/11/Antminer-S17%2B-user-OM-202006021031-sig_5968.tar.gz

Make sure my SD Card is formatted with fat32 on my linux machine with cmds

Code:
sudo mkfs.fat /dev/sdd
lsblk -f  //confirm fat32


Copy Antminer-S17+-user-OM-202006021031-sig_5968.tar.gz file and unzip to sdcard base directory.
Insert sd card into conrol board and power up.

When I do this, both the red and green status light remain green forever... I think they are supposed to go off?
