Hi Everybody, I buyed the fan shim for my Raspi4 and I installed the software for control the fan. I set the temperature between from 40 to 50 degrees. First the leds worked fine, the alarm colours was correctly green, orange and red…then I tryed change the range of temperature and now the colours of the leds are blu or white ( and not green), orange e red…how I can solve this problem?
Thanks and ciao
What temperatures did you use? I’ve changed mine several times and the colors are always green > yellow >red. Setting a lower turn on temperature just makes it get red quicker at that lower temperature.
To change mine I do the following
cd fanshim-python
cd examples
sudo systemctl stop pimoroni-fanshim.service
sudo ./install-service.sh --on-threshold 55 --off-threshold 35 --delay 5
I used: sudo ./install-service.sh --on-threshold 50 --off-threshold 40 --delay 2
Ok, I’m currently using on at 45 off at 35 and my LED colors are red yellow green. I don’t remember ever seeing blue or white, not with the fan shim software. I think i would reinstall the fan shim software.
Maybe do exactly as i posted above and run it from Home > Pi > fanshim-python > examples. And stop it first.
I attach a photo of my Raspi with the led blue.
Please, can you tell me how I can uninstall the soft and then reinstall it?
Thanks and ciao

I would
cd fanshim-python
cd examples
sudo systemctl stop pimoroni-fanshim.service
sudo systemctl disable pimoroni-fanshim.service
To uninstall I believe you do the following.
cd fanshim-python
the run
sudo ./uninstall.sh
and to reinstall reboot and do
cd fanshim-python
the run
sudo ./install.sh
then
cd examples
sudo ./install-service.sh --on-threshold 50 --off-threshold 40 --delay 2
