Hotend fan stopping

As seen on the video my hotend fan turns off for a second or couple sometimes while printing. It already caused some clogs. Why could it be happening?

I checked it Looks alright Should I just replace fan? Ive got the Gdstime 4010 on hand and fan mounted is some 15 cent fysetc one because gdstime didn't make it on time for the build.

i mean its cheaper to replace the cable first, and if the issue still persists then replacing the fan just a broken cable
