Syntax: show module

Fan control module (two LEDs on rear panel of router)

Unlabeled

Green (steady)

The fans are 
working and 
responding to 
controls from the 
fan control module.

Off or 
amber

The fans are not receiving power (off), or the fans are not working 
and not responding to controls from the fan control module 
(amber). Check the following:

•

If the LED is off, check the power LED on the other modules 
to make sure they are receiving power. If you are using a DC 
power source, check your power source for problems. 

•

If you are using AC power supplies, take the actions 
described in the Meaning or Action column for the AC power 
supply LED. If these actions do not resolve the problem, 
check the LED on each power supply or enter the show 
chassis command at any CLI prompt to determine if a power 
supply has failed. If a power supply has failed, you must 
replace it. 

•

If the LED is amber, you must replace the fan module.
