XZBMW  ICOM A2 Fan Failure
My ICOM A2 clone system led is blinking red after bootup. Self test showing fan failure. Yeah I know no fan in these. Tested 4 or so cars yesterday without an issue, plugged in this am and saw it went for green to red. Re-loaded firmware and still same. Seems to id cars ok and pull codes but I'm not going to program anything. Any ideas???

Pulled it apart last night and re-seated connections after blasting them with some contact cleaner. Cleaned and applied some new thermo grease on heat sink and today no more blinking red and no self test failures. Scanned 3 cars already today without an issue. Fingers crossed.

First thing I did was reload current firmware, which didn't help but it did take that out of the equation.

Pulled it apart and re-seated connections after blasting them with some contact cleaner. Cleaned and applied some new thermo grease on heat sink and chip - no more blinking red and no self test failures.

That's what worked for me smile
