      @anvil sounds like you've possibly damaged the fan control mosfet then
      can you get a high res picture of the area around the fan connectors?

        part cooling fan operates as it should and responds to the DWC. ... however the tool fan is also listed on the DWC and doesnt respond to the controls... they both slide together when i attempt to manipulate them and the hotend fan wont turn off even when cool and i ask it to with m107 (not sure if it would even respond to that or not)

            @anvil the tool fan listed in DWC controls the part cooling fan of the activated tool, not the hotend fan. Its useful in a multitool setup, but not so much if you only have 1 hotend.
            thermostatic fans can't be controlled through DWC

                  @anvil there doesn't appear to be any damage that can be seen
                  If you remove the SD card and power up the board, does the fan still come on?

                    @jay_s_uk crud sorry I already put everything back together before i saw the sd card thing...

                    but after inspecting the connectors and making sure polarity is correct and continuity is present for the proper wires to each fan...

                    put everything back together and it the hotend fan is now observing the thermostatic control....

                    but still running into the issue of it starting and stopping at the beginning of a print.

                    would it still be helpful to remove the sd card and power up the board?

                          Ya it seems like m107 in the g code is turning off fan1 for some reason....

                          man what a frustrating issue....

                          It was printing flawlessly when I printed a part with a small first layer...

                          noticed the issue yesterday when i had a part with a large base and i had a jam by layer 2 because of heat creep 😞

                            @anvil did you change M563 to F0?
                            M107 shouldn't be applied to thermostatic fan

                              You can test the thermostatic fan by sending M106 P1 H-1 S1 which should turn it on full. When it's powered on full, move the print head around to bed to see if the fan cuts out. It sounds like a wiring break.

                                @phaedrux your a wizard man. totally a wire in the drag chain... as soon as the hotend moves to the far side of the bed the wire for the fan is bent and when it straightens out in the chain it comes back on. Thanks!
