Possible dead water pump.

I am by no means a water cooling expert so I ask those of you that are how can I tell if my water pump is dead? I have a corsair h110. Earlier I changed out a rear case fan which I did yesterday as well, I got new fans yesterday and wanted to preposition one today. After doing so I boot up my system and I can no longer control my temps, i down clocked my cpu so I can have a few minutes in the bios before having to shut down and I have switched the pump power into 3 different headers and leaving it unplugged also seems to have no effect at all on temps, it slowly rises and rises until I shut down at 80C. I am clueless as to what to do because I have no issues at all this morning and I don't have a spare cooler on me.

Sounds like the AIO isn't providing any cooling whatsoever. I think it's dead. Either get a new one or an air cooler. You can run the CPU @stock and use the stock cooler if you can't wait.
