Endstop port unresponsive despite valid connections

This should be made more prevalent in the documentation.

it’s not obvious to folks that an ESD ground for the dust collection needs to be run back to ac ground and not go anywhere near the jackpot DC power connection.

in fact, I bet it seems like a logical place if folks aren’t told why to avoid it.

In hindsight, it should have been pretty obvious :slight_smile: ya’ll are an awesome and very helpful community over here

I really have put this CNC to work too. Several intense jobs flattening big slabs and it held up well despite all that discharge going through the board. I will message you on the side!

I will add it, and link something like this, Amazon.com, to make it even more clear. This could have been a huge bummer.

It is not too bad with about 400C on the heat gun, pull off the plastic esp32 strip nearest the component, heat the component for about 15-20 seconds with a small air tip, pull it off with tweezers. I can usually replace them without adding more solder. put them on, heat until you see the part settle 15 seconds or so, and it should be good.

Seems feasible! I am going to give it a shot. Where can I source the replacement part?

I will add them to your order.

You are the man! I figured I would order a new board anyways in the event i destroy my current one by accident :slight_smile:
