I can see where I'm supposed to plug the fan cable but it's covered up and I'm scared to tug on it in case I break it. Is there some knack to opening it?

Ah, I figured it out, I was pulling the wrong bit, you just need to pull the square off the top.

It's not obvious that the receptacle has a cap, particularly with weak eyesight. I broke off the header trying to remove it.
