I have a 2016 Razer Blade with the 970m, and I just replaced the battery because it was fairly swollen and now my fans don't seem to be working. If I re-plug the fans in while the laptop is running, they run at full blast until I shut down the computer, which they then won't turn back on. I have reinstalled my Nvidia drivers after a DDU wipe, Razer Synapse 2 & 3, and the program(x86) files, as well as the auto-bios updater. I can't seem to figure out if the system is just missing a driver or has an issue with the fan connectors. Changing the fan profile in Synapse doesn't do anything and the laptop just overheats.
Attached is a screenshot of Speedfan which shows that the fans are not being detected by the system.

It's best if you can open the back panel of the laptop to check the fan connectors and test them. Make sure both the Synapse application and Windows OS are up to date as well. If you have a can of compressed air, use it to clean the fans as well.
