Try the reset a couple of times, if it still doesn't work you have a dead controller and you'll have to RMA the unit.

Thanks,

This is from the Corsair Tech Support: The official way to reset the firmware on the H100's fan controller...

Technical Support

The firmware reset only fix the non functioning fan controller only, not a completely dead unit. This is the procedure to reset the firmware, it's probably worth a shot:


To reset the firmware, use the following procedure:

1. While the computer is running, hold down the profile button for approximately five seconds
2. Wait one minute, while the unit continues to run
3. Shut down your computer
4. Press and hold the profile button for five seconds while turning on the power to your computer.

Thanks
Just to let you all know this did not work for me. Not sure if I should request an RMA or not? My pump still works no problem.

Don't worry about the process. Corsair has gone above and beyond for me every time I have had an issue or problem

They even gave me the sata3 / USB 3 upgrade kits for my 800D for free.

I'm sure they will refund. If not, they will definitely RMA at the very least.

They will definitely get you an RMA. I know they were taking off the week after new years, so they might still be out of the office. I'm sure they will get to you Monday. They are usually very fast to respond to my requests through their support ticket system.
