Maintaining Corsair H100 (CWCH100)

[JamesCRocks]

Hi,

Having removed the cooling system from my friend's PC, how can I establish that it's working correctly and, if required, put more solution in it. 

What is the solution in it anyway? Distilled water maybe? 

Thanks

James

Generally you can put the AIO on a separate power source or limited power with the ATX jumper to test the motor. However, in this case that H100 has had its day. These “no maintenance” coolers were not meant to last indefinitely and are not designed to be refilled. They often have one way screws or other construction features that make taking it apart a nightmare. In this case there is every reason to believe the H100 is no longer functional in the way that was intended. It’s time for a reasonable replacement.
