Shorted fan wires then LCD blank and RAMBO won't connect.

Rostock max v2

So I was playing around with trying to get my fan to turn off because it was running constantly before the print would start. Shorted it out. Opps. Blank LCD and now I can't connect to the RAMBO anymore. I checked the blue fuse on RAMBO and pressed the reset button on RAMBO but no connection to computer and no luck with the LCD.
Anything else I can try or is buying a new RAMBO the solution?

Yes, you should buy a new Rambo. Or just replace the $1.00 fuse in the F3 position.https://www.seemecnc.com/collections/pa ... -for-rambo. I haven't used a Rambo in a long time but it is easily located. Do an image search. https://sc01.alicdn.com/kf/UT8PSKMXypbX ... gOFbX6.jpg

I have a Rambo I just pulled from my max. $25 plus shipping

Good price, but he doesn't need a new Rambo. He only blew a fuse.

Hey thanks, both of you. I'll try the fuse first and if that doesn't fix it I will surely buy your RAMBO (as long as shipping isn't from across the globe).

If you guys aren't using a RAMBO what are you using?

Duet's. I've got a .8.5, and I believe he has a wifi model. Essentially it's a much faster processor with some additional capabilities and a lot more expandability. I would call it effectively a next generation controller compared to the Rambo, although it looks like a the wifi is a bridge between that and yet another generation of advancements. Beautiful boards, but if you short the fan leads on a .8.5, the processor dies while the wifi needs a surface mount fuse desoldering and replaced. The rambo is much nicer to beginners.

Not duet. Radds
