NZXT H440 Case LEDs not working as intended

Hey, so for a while now I've noticed the LEDs on my NZXT H440 are a bit temperamental. In total there are 3 LEDs for the case, there's the IO one on the back, the power one and the Logo LED. The power button one has always worked but the IO and NZXT logo LEDs don't always work. There's a button on the back to toggle them on/off but that's not the problem. The LEDs will work spontaneously. For the last few months they seemed to be working alright but yesterday the NZXT logo was on, but a but dim so I pulled a Fonzie and bashed the top of the case and that make the light more intense. Today again, however, the LEDs are off. I've checked the connections multiple times and nothing wrong there . This is a problem I've been having pretty much since I got the case 3 or so years ago.

Could it possibly be something to do with other components I have in my system? I really dunno, 

 

Anyway, thanks :S

Sounds like faulting cabling. just a case problem. Even if the cables are connected, there can be lots of different issues to prevent a good contact.

Ah, see, the LEDs and fan hub are all run by the same 4 pin molex connector and the fan hub has always worked okay. I'm not sure how to go about finding out what the issue is
