Control board connector issue

Post by kokorski » Wed Aug 15, 2018 5:12 am

Good afternoon:
I have noticed that the control board that came in my order has a problem with the hot bed connector. The latch of the connector is broken and does not tighten, so it is not possible to connect the power cables to the hot bed.

I am waiting for your news, with some solution.

regards

Buenas tardes:
He observado que la placa de control que venia en mi pedido tiene un problema con el conector de la cama caliente. El torinillo del conector esta roto y no aprieta, por lo que no es posible conectar los cables de alimentacion para la cama caliente.

Quedo a la espera de sus noticias, con alguna solución.

Saludos

Are there no screws to tighten and fix the heating wire?

Hi
:mrgreen:

As Gingko suggests, this is a screw connection.
Plug the uninsulated end of the cable into the hole. Tighten the clamping screw from above.

If the problem is something else, tell them about it. ;)

Hi there:

The screw is inside, but it does not tighten, no matter how many turns I give it, it seems that the screw thread is defective.

Hi
:mrgreen:

It could have happened as you say. :?

In this case, the entire socket must be replaced.
If you want to do it yourself, you need to know the lead raster.
For this purpose, the leg distance can be measured with a calliper.

Hello:

I have no experience repairing control board connectors, so I think it would be best if you give me another solution.

I would not want to cause more damage to the board when trying to repair the connector.

Hello.
:mrgreen:

That's very bad.

Consult your salesman. Tell him about the problem.

For a short fix and for info, you don't really need the heat bed for printing anyway. It's mainly used for ABS, (which is a pain in the arse to print) so if your mainly PLA don't use the heat bed and grab some https://www.amazon.co.uk/Signstek-Print ... +ad&sr=8-7
They work great, just stick them on your glass.

Safe printing
