			<description><![CDATA[<p>I have the same issue with both fans. A very quiet clicking comes from both fans on my printer. There are only 4.5 volts going through both connections on the extruder and the rear fan. Does anybody know what to do. I would rather not power them through an external power supply. Thanks!</p>]]></description>
