Chris,

The unit doesn’t seem to be warm. 
I adjusted the voltage down to 42 volts, to provide some headroom. I am using 
KL5056 stepper drivers and they say max 50 volts. There is definitely power to 
the fan because if I try to turn it it snaps back to the fixed position. The 
voltage is rock steady at 42 volts.

I wonder if it is just the fan or fan controller that is bad. 

I bought the power supply a year or so ago but this is the first time I have 
applied power to it. Maybe I will have to open it up and see if I could replace 
the fan.

Alan
