So the fans on the top and front of my case have died out. The white lights on the top have also stopped working and no matter where i set the dial on top the fans never start up.
 
So wondering what my options are, could this be a software problem or is it strictly hardware. I checked the power connections and they seemed fine, unplugged them and replugged etc.
 
Anyone else ever have this problem with the lvl3, the PC itself is 6 or 7 months old, thank you all

Hi Flavin... The top and front fans of ODE run off the top 600T fan controller as you said.  It's probably fried. Lots of people on other forums have complained of the controller crapping out.
 Make sure the 4 pin molex hanging down in the bundle of wires from fan conroller is connected to similar plug from power supply to power the controller. 
Also there are four fan headers coming from fan control.  Try the other two just to see.  A cap slides off each to fit each fan connector. 
If still a no-go then you need  a new fan controller.  Call DS tech service . 
Temporarily, you can connect the fans directly to ps peripheral connectors, I'm not sure what you need, but maybe a male to female adapter for each..Not sure, haven't dug that deep.
 
You would need a 3 pin fan to 4 pin pass through power cable shown here I believe to conn to ps http://www.amazon.com/Cables-Go-27078-3-pin-Pass-Through/dp/B00007FGUD
