RED SEA REEF LED 90 problem

[treepear]

Hi there hoping that someone may have an easy fix for the issue with an led90 I have recently brought second hand. The fan unit stays on permanently even when I disconnect from the app. Anybody had this issue thanks in advance.

If it's what I think you're talking about then it's supposed to. Just because you disconnect from the app doesn't mean the light turns off if it is still plugged in. Not sure if that's what you mean?

Thankyou but it stays on permanently buzzing at high speed

It's possible that it may need to be cleaned out. Found this video that goes through cleaning the smaller RL50 light. Should be pretty similar to the 90

Mine never come on, I would definitely take it apart and clean it.

Are you running them at 100%?

I contacted red sea and they’ve just replied saying I would need to change 3 internal parts 1. LED array 2. Bottom circuit board and 3 the fan it’s self. Not what I wanted to hear so better of just buying a new one . Thankyou for your advice I will look into cleaning it but don’t hold much hope

Uh.. this sounds like a nonsense answer because they don't want to deal with you because you're not the original owner. You won't be covered under the warranty, so don't even bother with them. Disassemble it, clean it, see how it goes.

Even if parts need to be replaced, it would likely just be the fan by itself. Don't really understand why you'd need to replace the other parts as well.
