Need LED fan header help please

I just upgraded my system to these configs:

 

*Intel i7 4790k

*Corsair H100i

*650W psu Corsair

*Nvidia Gigabyte G1 gaming 4GB DDR5 gtx 960

*Asus Z97A

*16 giggs of Corsair Vengeance DDR3

*Thermaltake Chaser MK-I

 

Basically, after setting it all up, I seem to be having one problem. At the store when they set it up everything including the fan led's were working great. and I set it up at home just now a few minutes ago and both the fans are running great, The front fan LED's working great as well but the side mesh panel fan which is another 200mm although working fine the led's not working somehow. The front fan LED's working fine but the side panel one isn't. Both are 200mm fan's btw. Tried different fan headers, still the same outcome so far.

 

It's got a 3pin connector and connected to the bottom "CHA FAN 2" port on the motherboard. Where have I gone wrong? Because it was working fine on the store just a couple hours ago. Not a manufacturing problem, maybe a issue with my setup maybe?

 

Help would be great guys, I adore you all.! Cheers.!

can you plug the fan directly in to the power suppy to see if that changes anything?

Maybe the fans are connected or should be connected to both the mobo and the PSU, check your cabling and look for unplugged molex cables
