I bought a discounted zalman water cooler and the water pump stopped working after 4-5 months.
What are the chances I can repair this myself ?

very low to impossible
None, because its a closed circuit made in a factory. Any tries will probably ruin it more.

I tried to rewire it to other sources but it still doesn't pump. I feel so scammed.

Warranty?

Once you break that seal, I doubt you will ever be able to reseal it properly. You might, but right now your choices are to either send it in for repair by a licensed technician or attempt to do it yourself. On one hand you will have to pay more than you saved by buying some shitty version, on the other you don't have anymore to lose but your time.
Of course what I just posted was common sense and you probably wanted a guide on how to do it yourself, right?

Hope that helps.

I'm going to return it tomorrow, yea. But I fear that even if they give me a new one, it's still going to break in a couple of months when the warranty goes off.. Such a waste of money.

How much did you pay?
>>54824046
I didn't touch it, never tinkered with water cooling in my life other than to mount it on a computer.

70 dollars

I was only referring to your question about repairing it yourself.
I figured it broke so quickly because it was a cheap deal for a reason. You found out that reason after 4-5 months.
Good luck.
