I bought 3 SP120 fans and 2 HD140 fans. All of the fans power on and get recognized by the computer but only the HD140 fans seem to light up.
 
Solution
First, I'd double-check the power to make sure that the SP fan hub is getting power.

From there, try rearranging the fans on the hub. The fans operate in a series so one bad fan can through it all off. Also, make sure that the fans are connected to ports 1-2-3 - don't skip ports.

If that's still not working, contact Corsair for a possible RMA.

Where do you have the RGB connectors for the fans plugged in? Note that the SP and the HD fans don't play nice together on the same RGB Fan Hub.

And take a look at http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=173880.

I have the SP120 fans connected to the SP Fan Hub and the HD140 fans connected to the HD Fan hub. For some reason only the HD140 fans are displaying color though.

Are they connected to a Lighting Node Pro? Or does each one have it's own push-button controller?

I have them both connected to the hub they came with and the controller they came with.

How do I check if it's getting power?
