Hello,

I have a ThinkPad P53 with 2 fans, and I use thinkfan for fan speed control. Thinkfan relies on thinkpad_acpi to detect the fans, but it is only detecting the fan on the left side of the laptop. The fan on the right side doesn't seem to work at all, which causes that side to get pretty hot.

I'd like to help in any way that I can. Please let me know if there is any extra info I can provide.

Thank you!
