Rambo Fuses
Posted: Thu Jul 03, 2014 1:41 am
So, I blew a fuse on my Rambo tonight. Luckily, it was in the very beginning of the print. However, I have spent several hours troubleshooting the problem because of confusing information in the RAMBO wiki page.[img]http://i.imgur.com/50C8qoM.jpg[/img]
There are 3 fuses in the picture. F4 is the automotive style fuse up top. F3 is the beige fuse near the top of the board, F2 is the beige fuse in the middle of the board (note: there is no fuse in the F2 position in this picture, it was removed when I took the picture.) On the wiki it states that the F2 fuse is for the motors and on-board power supply and F3 is for the extruder and fans. I thought this meant that F2 supplies power to the board; however, this is incorrect. F3 is the fuse necessary for the board to operate. If it is blown, the board will not power on. This might just be me being dumb, but hopefully it will be helpful for someone in the future.
