SKR MINI V3 and a Rasperry Pi 4 (for Klipper) is ordered and in the mail..
Shit, what have i done. Haha

And the "Fire and Ash" = spoiler.
I know where this is going..
Yeah, it's a pretty standard setup. The previous owner put a BLTouch on the printer but never got it to work. I've had the printer for about 2 weeks and was about to figure this ABL out, but it misses the ABL option in the menu.
I'm pretty new in the 3D print business and know nothing about flashing, compiling, and all the options you can do. You recommend the SKR MINI 3.0, and i didn't know i could change the mobo to other than the original SKR V1.4. What are the benefits of changing to the SKR MINI? And, no, I'm not in the US. But I'll find it here in Norway..
And Klipper? Not heard of that either, but a fast youtube peek tells me that this too might be interesting..
Yes, that little board connects many of the cables from the main board to one USB-C, the the black and the white connectors. The USB-C is the only one going to the hotend.
Anways, thank you, kind internet stranger, for trying to help me out with this. Looks like I'm gonna have to replace the mainboard.
Thanks for the links. Can't see any scorching, and everything I've measured seems OK. If there are LED's on the mainboard, i don't know how to light them. As of now there are no lights on the motherboard, but everything beyond that heater works..
The thermistor temperature reacts to me touching the thermistor-end. This shows in the display- So i believe this is not the problem here..
The outside view
This is the board that has a USB-C on the outside for the hotend
- Power from PDU = OK
- Power to bed heater = OK
- Looks like power to the nozzle heater = same results as when checking volts directly on the hotend.
- Empty
#3 goes up to a board back on the printer. This board has multiple outlets, and one USB-C that goes up to the hotend.
Home, and done some measuring.
- measurement:
Just started the printer: 1,24 VAC
Preheating the nozzle: 0,00 VAC
After error beep: 1,24 VAC - measurement:
Just started the printer: 1,57 VAC
Preheating the nozzle: 0,00 VAC
After error beep: 1,57 VAC
Old heater: 13,6 Ohm
New heater: 14,6 Ohm
So, no power to the nozzle heater. Now, how to verify the mosfet?
I only have questions.
First things first, i probably should get control on the cables and their markings before i take out the old mainboard.
I'll start this adventure as soon as the parts arrive. Parts are still in the mail somewhere..
Thanks for offering to help me out here.
