Rumba Board Issues

Post by Ziggey »

So I'm getting frustrated. I have been having issues with my max V2 lately. It wouldn't print it seemed like the nozzel kept getting clogged up. Long story short I ended up blowing a Nano2 fuse. I didn't have a replacement fuse, but I had just received in my new rumba board for my Diamond upgrade. I switched everything out I believe like I was suppose to but am getting nothing. The lcd isn't turning on, I don't have any lights on the board. I keep reading stuff about jumpers and I have not moved any... I couldn't really figure out what or where I was suppose to move stuff. I also can't really find detailed info on setup. I have attacked a picture to show you what I have set up. I know its a cluster fuck but I figured it might help.

Is the board dead?

Any suggestions would be great.

Update time. So I found the jumper for usb powered and it didn't turn on/ get detected. I'm not sure what to do, I set it back to power supplied and measured it with the volt meter. I have 12V coming in both the 5a and 11a terminal(yellow/black wires top left of picture) like it should have. I am not getting any power to the board though.. I measured for volts in several spots and I am getting nothing.

Does this sound like a bad board or what?

Thank you,
Zig

The rumba has an led that lights when power is on.
It also has 2 fuses that must be checked to make sure it is not blown.
I have included a picture of the rumba and more info can be found here: http://www.reprap.org/wiki/RUMBA

My approach would be to disconnect everything but the power input itself. If the board suddenly starts to work (power light comes on!), then you had something plugged in wrong. If it doesn't work, you've eliminated the rest of the machine as a possible cause of this problem.

I assume you've solved this problem, since you have a newer thread in another section about configuring firmware.
