        Can you disassemble the smart effector and snap some close up photos of both sides?

              Looks like there is some damage to the traces near the heater output

                @jay_s_uk Yes I noticed that, doesn't look like the tracks are damaged, just the blue cover but then they also look very delicate.

                  @andy_m they are in the V2 version. The be version uses resistors rather than traces to measure impact and is a lot more resistant to damage. Have to wait for @Phaedrux to determine the next steps

                    The damage to those traces looks like it could be the problem. They are quite delicate. Waiting to see what DC42 thinks.

                    Do you know what caused that scuff? I assume it worked at some point?

                      @phaedrux It was working fine, I'm not sure why, but the fan mount broke. (I work in a school and some of the students can be a little unreliable!) I think refitting the fan must have caused the problem, there isn't a great deal of space. I have another board like this, would it cause a problem if I covered the board with tape if I have to replace anything? Don't want to trash another one!

                        DC42 has confirmed that the damage is likely the problem. The traces are quite delicate.

                        You mean as protection for the traces on the new smart effector? I suppose that could work. It probably wouldn't make it stiff enough to matter. Worth trying.

                          @phaedrux Okay, thanks for your help identifying the problem. Is there a newer version now, @jay_s_uk seems to suggest so and it looks different on the Duet product pages?

                              @jay_s_uk Do you know where I can get one that doesn't include the hot end as I don't need the extra expense? They are listed as out of stock on the Duet site and Ooznest is the v2.
