bed upgrade -fried my motherboard - tiny fuse
Posted: Sat May 30, 2020 6:51 am
I may have fried my motherboard upgrading to a 4 point bed and new heating bed. I’m a novice with electronics. I still don’t know if I inserted the thermostat connector in the right way (no instructions on this), but I think that they are the same the same direction as my other newer printer.
I tried upload using the correct older Arduino (after initially mistakenly uploading using the older version and trying the Quick Start app). The printer no longer connects, and the MB fan no longer works (I tried 2 fans. Albeit the little green light in the front goes on and the USB makes a sound when inserting and taking it out).
The image of the MB that attached names 3 fuses. Two of the fuses are tiny. I have no idea how to get them out (with tweezers?). Or if they have blown. I did a Google search for the 04448005.MR fuses and couldn't find a place in New Zealand that sells them (but I did find a NZ site that appears to be based in the US. It costs about 5 times the value of the fuses to send them here). I’ve emailed a friend who knows a little about this stuff who may be able to source them.
Any suggestions on getting this machine working... and if i need them, where one might find these tiny fuses this part of the world?
