This being my first w/c build iam a bit stumped on how leak test it. This is because i don't think the pump will work unless the psu is pluged into the mobo. iam making sense lol?

Connect green pin with black pin in your PSU and it will be work with pump

For leak testing use tissues - simple like that.

Green pin on pump to black pin on psu check. Bloody night shift should be building instead of working

I could be wrong, but I am almost certain he means green to black on the PSU connector, don't connect the pump directly to the connector on the PSU.

You need to jump start the PSU basically by connecting 2 pins together. Plenty of images out there showing how to do it.

Yes he means on the 24 pin atx cable. Bridge the green and a black with a paperclip to jump start the PSU.

Don't jump on black, only trying to help, the same as the rest of you guys. Thats why i asked, now its clear. Forums at its best imo.
