I'm having trouble with my AIO pump. Whenever I power on my PC, the fans on the AIO start spinning, but the LCD display on the pump isn't lighting up at all. Additionally, the BIOS is showing an idle temperature of 80°C, even though the pump is connected to the CPU fan header. Does anyone know what the issue might be?

Make sure to check all your connections carefully. Ensure that every cable is plugged in correctly and that the pump is securely mounted. Also, double-check that any plastic covering on the bottom of the cold plate has been removed, and that you've applied enough thermal paste. If everything checks out and it's still not working, it might be dead on arrival (DOA).
Is your BIOS detecting the pump speed? This can help pinpoint what's wrong. Sometimes the pump might be running but not showing the right data.
Yes, it picked up some speeds. I managed to get it down to 50°C for a bit, but then it shot back up to around 70°C.
I checked everything, and it still isn't working.
