No voltage

Well I wired 3 psu together (so only need one plug) and everything was working great...now one of the psu has 0 volt output, fan still runs, and there was no burnt smell....any ideas?

disconnect that one and see if it still works. if it does then it most likely will be that it is producing a slowly lower voltage than the other two power supplies, so the current is leaking back to the third power supply, so the third simply turns off.

are all 3 power supplies identical?
