To All,
I was in the Vapochill Control pannel last night, I swear I was just lowering the heaters a little bit to see if it made any difference temp diff. at all, when all of the sudden, the LCD on the vapochill went black, (the fans on the unit likely stopped), my cpu temps started to rise uncontrollably, and the compressor started getting very hot. Needless to say, I freakin jumped up out of my seat and pulled the plug.
I've tried resetting factory settings, pulled the molex from the CC board, but after that it still wouldn't go back on; I left it off over night to let the compressor cool down - it was seriously hot for a while, (but it was still plugged in - power going to cc during the night)
When I plugged it all back together (CPU <-> HERMEPHERDITE CONNECTOR <-> WALL/AC), the CC board lights up, and when pressing the power button, the Vapochill LCD lights up, but when I press and hold the power button to activate the compressor and turn the unit on, the screen goes black, the comressor jumps as though it looks like its going on normally, but the fans don't come on with it - So I pull the plug at this point.
This is the fourth time I've tried, and I'm very worried about damaging my unit, so I'm scared now!!! Some one please help me. I have one spare CC board that the original owner told me may have been bad, and he marked this "good" one that I'm using in the unit now - should I try to use that one instead to see if it will work, or is it likely some other problem?
