S9 Temps Immediately Spike Upon Hash

I've had my S9 for a few months now, didn't have any issues until recently (Nothings changed).
Something odd just started happening within the last few days and I'm not sure what to do about it.

I wanted to check here before I talked to bitmain to see if anyone has any ideas.

Basically, as soon as my S9 turns on and starts hashing the temps immediately jump to 110+ (Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/Ha13I2w.jpg) and the unit just stops mining due to high temps obviously.

I've even had the miner off and made sure it was completely cooled (Room temp is around 60-70f) for several days before turning it on again (Exact same scenario, once hashing, temps immediately spike).

I don't see anything visibly wrong, both fans are still working normally. I don't see any visible amounts of dust or anything inside that might be causing an issue (From what I can see on the outside).

I have done a reset but had the same thing happen.

I've tried adding additional cooling (Due to summer temp increase) to see if it would help, however, that has made no changes to the unit which makes me think it's something internal. Any ideas?
