Reset temperature sensor on Supermicro X7DWA-N

physical-environmentsupermicro

My supermicro X7DWA-N will no longer boot and the temperature light just blinks even when the system has been off for 12 hours, so it's not hot at all.

Is there a way to reset this alarm and perhaps letting the computer boot?

I wanted to try a CMOS reset, but I can't for the life of me find the jumper.

From your motherboard manual(X7DWA-N)

JBT1 is used to clear CMOS. Instead of pins, this "jumper" consists of contact pads to prevent accidental clearing of CMOS. To clear CMOS, use a metal object such as a small screwdriver to touch both pads at the same time to short the connection. Always remove the AC power cord from the system before clearing CMOS.

And the jumper is located right above the Chassis Intrusion header. Here's the picture of the layout of your motherboard.
