I've connected a 5V fan to my PI ENERGY-MINI but it's not running. Is the fan temperature controlled or do i miss a special setup?


 


Kind Regards

Hello,


the fan output on the Pi Energy-Mini is not temperature-controlled.
It provides the same 5 V supply that also powers your Raspberry Pi.


If possible, please measure the voltage at the fan connector to confirm that 5 V are present.
If no voltage is present, please check the solder joints of the fan connector.
If 5 V are present but the fan still doesn’t run, it’s most likely a defective fan.


Kind regards,
