Which consequence results when a Peltier cooler’s heatsink fails?

💡 Explanation

A failing heatsink means less heat moves away from the Peltier's hot side, so the temperature differential decreases because the cold side struggles to get colder. Reduced transfer negatively impacts performance, rather than voltage/current effects, which would represent entirely different failures.
