Reassembled hotend and now fan is acting up

As the title says and the videos display, my fan is acting up now and I don't know why.

Update: I've narrowed it down to the far side of the bed so it seems like a wire is being pinched/pulled just right. So, until I figure it out completely, I will just avoid prints on that side.

Title here

Try moving the hotend to the far side, then give the cables just a tiny bit more slack outside the little clamp.

I had similar issue with the red heater wires touching the fan itself, grinding against it.

Glad it worked out.

It's sometimes the smallest annoyance that gets you 🙂
