Koolance Exos Failure

TheGreatSatan · 08-January-05, 01:43 PM

My Koolance Exos water pump wasn't turning on, so my proc would heat up and then the computer would shut off. I took apart the Exos and emptied the reservoir. When inspecting the parts I found one of the hosesinside had been partially melted by laying on the heatsink. Only about half as much coolant was even going through the hose (and these hoses are about 1/4 inch tops!). Anyway, do I try to clean out the pump or do I replace it? Can it be replaced? And where do I get more hosing? Would a hardware store or something have these? Thanks.

Hardware store will have the tubing. Is the pump actually toast? Make sure that you tell the Koolance folks about the problem. Replacement pump at the koolance website.
