Today I turned on my Meanwell but my CPU temp didn't drop like usual. (It usually goes from 35C to 5C when I turn on the TEC.) . . . However, the temp dropped on my video card (from 40C to 2C) as usual because the TEC on it is connected to the same Meanwell. So I knew the Meanwell is working. . . .
I also tested the terminals at the Meanwell and the CPU TEC is still getting 12.2V like before. . .
So my only conclusion is that somehow the TEC on the CPU died. Is there anything else I can test without taking the entire system apart? I really want to avoid that unless I know for sure that the TEC must be dead.
