farshadatis Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Hey all, I just installed new lcd upgrade kit on H150i Elite Capellix and noticed that coolant temp sensor is stuck at -8 degrees all the time, had to change sensor to cpu cores because fans were not working. Tried to force firmware update and reinstalling icue but they didn't help. Is it hardware issue? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair Notepad Posted March 1, 2022 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 1, 2022 Do you happen to be running other hardware monitoring software such as HWiNFO64, HWMonitor, AIDA64, etc... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farshadatis Posted March 1, 2022 Author Share Posted March 1, 2022 No I don't have any of those monitoring tools, it also shows on hardware mode, so when system is booting up I see this temp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Certainly appears to be a defective or improperly operating temperature probe. I think that is the first we’ve seen. Software interference is far more common. This is probably physical and you’ll need to exchange the cooler with the vendor or contact Corsair Support through the link at the bottom of the page. However, it might be worthwhile to try a forced firmware update on the Elite to reset things. Go to the device settings -> check for update -> (none) -> force update. The pump and fans will max out for a few seconds as it reloads the firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farshadatis Posted March 1, 2022 Author Share Posted March 1, 2022 Tried that multiple times, even reattached all cables and lcd but no luck. The strange thing is on first boot when I installed it, showed correct temp but after installing icue it started acting like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair Notepad Posted March 1, 2022 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 1, 2022 Do you have the MSI software installed for your motherboard? If so what happens if you uninstall it completely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farshadatis Posted March 1, 2022 Author Share Posted March 1, 2022 Is the sensor on lcd kit or AIO itself because I had this AIO and everything was working fine before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c-attack Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) The actual sensor is inside the pump/block unit. If this is a physical issue with the sensor, the LCD top vs standard should not matter. I expected it to be physical since the top was reporting the erroneous temp pre-OS. However, if the value is correct with the standard top on, then that changes things. No need to uninstall Afterburner. Most of us use it.

So does it mean is it a firmware issue since it's happening before OS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 That was one possibility. Since you mentioned this was a unit your already owned and it was not doing this prior to the LCD top installation, it's not clear whether the LCD top is misreading data and then transmitting the bad data to CUE or if it's something else. You could try a forced firmware update on the LCD top. You could try putting the standard top back on. However, it may be time to contact Corsair Support.

farshadatis Posted March 1, 2022 Author Share Posted March 1, 2022 I was reading some posts on reddit with same issue, it seems these lcds might damage commander pro controller, not sure if it's true or not! I am waiting for corsair support to see what's their suggestion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c-attack Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 There were some users who reported this, but also had clear data or connection issues across the rest of the metrics. This seems oddly singular. Regardless, another troubleshooting step is to completely power down, PSU switch off, and then reseat the LCD top.

farshadatis Posted March 3, 2022 Author Share Posted March 3, 2022 For anyone interested it turns out to be the commander unit, somehow lcd damaged it or something like that, used another commander unit and temps get back to show as before. Now I don't know where to find or buy this unit, units on website or amazon are different that this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheetos Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 I've had this issue for a long period that it never bothered me. But for whatever reason, as of lately, it's been bothering me and prompting me to research. Low and behold.... there are tons of claims with this LCD being funky. Not one thread has taken me to an actual issue/remediation. Appears to be a hit or miss thing. Did you get your unit replaced or what was the end resolution on this thread? @farshadatis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
