DDC Pump not pumping

[kennah]

Moved my computer from one room to another, and now my pump isn't pumping. It wasn't bumped around, and nothing was changed. If I put my hand on the pump, it feels like it starts to try than stops. Like a vrrrrrrrSTOP. Vrrrrrr STOP.

Dead pump? Is there more trouble shooting that I could do other than unplugging it and trying a different power port?

You could try taking it apart and cleaning it, maybe will help. Turn your system upside down before removing the pump u maynot need to remove coolant that way if you have any space in the system idea.

It's a Splash. There's no room for anything lol. I took a video of what it looks like through my reservoir. Will upload shortly.

Either protection kicks in or electronics fried.

[kennah]

Protection would be from a blockage or something?

YEs if impeller jammed it will do that. But I would check all power cables first.

its just super weird that it would go from working fine, and simply relocating your PC to another room causes fail...

[kennah]

Yeah. I tried a different power plug. No change. Trying to figure out a way to get at the pump without taking apart the whole computer but it's not looking promising

[DazMode]

No it does not.

[kennah]

Well. Took it apart. The pump when out of the case struggled for a second then sounded like it dislodged something and started spinning freely. Fingers crossed but will order a spare soon.

[kennah]

Didn't help. Still not working. Guess it's time to take it all apart.

[kennah]

Cpu block was totally clogged up with debris from something. Cleaning everything now. Sigh.

[kennah]

Yeah pump is toast. Won't work at all even with no obstructions.

Bummer.
