Shut down and turned off my PSU this morning. Turned my rig back on tonight, and the G light was green while the P/M lights were flashing red. Rebooted and now all three were blinking green/red. Uninstalled XOC, reinstalled, and it didn't solve the problem. Can't adjust the GPM colors.

Removed and reseated the card, still no luck.
 
I read a few threads about this, but I'm not having any luck. Has anyone managed to solve this without RMA?

Thanks in advance!

    Welcome to the Forum
    They change color based on Temperatures and you cannot change the G/P/M Lights
    G=GPU Core Temperature, P=Power Temperature (VRM), M=Memory Temperature.
    60°C Green  -  83°C Red and Blue at lower Temps and where mine are most of the time.
    You might want replace the Thermal Paste and check the Thermal Pads.
     
    Check the PCIe Power Cables at both Ends and check that no Pins pushed out of the Connector.
    Also you should use Two Separate PCIe Power Cables from the Power Supply to the Graphics Card.
    What is the Make and Model of your Power Supply and how old is it now?

    With XOC, you can actually adjust the colors that display according to color. These lights aren't responding to temp at all, they're just blinking green/red constantly.

    The temps are all good, nothing out of the ordinary there. I've checked connectors. PSU is an EVGA 850G3 that is less than a month old, and connections are doing good. I'll try using a second cable.

    No problem. RMA is definitely the solution... https://forums.evga.com/FindPost/2851921

    Went through some more troubleshooting stuff with tech support and ended up sending it out for RMA. My system looks painfully naked right now, but at least the problem's getting solved.
