i blew f3

Post by bubbasnow »

what else is connected to fuse3? i was hooking up a new fan and had everything running, but then the leds (hot end on and P6 on) went dark. im on v1.1b, e3d 40w heater and a 12v .9A max fan = 40/12 + .9 = 4.5A is there another place i can run this fan on a different fuse but still controllable with pwm??? where can i order more of these baby fuses?

Thanks!

Bed heat has its own fuse, so just the fan and extruder outputs. Replacing it with a 10A version of the fuse is the usual solution for this problem.

The 10Amp fuse to replace the 5 amp is listed at Mouser.com Part # 576-0448010.MR

Just sit and think happy thoughts and dream of all the upgrades you would like to do.

i think ill go buy a quickburn 125v/10A, and solder leads onto the bad LF and the new fuse, and slide that puppy back into place until the replacement comes.

That should work, glad you don't have to spend all weekend without your printer.
