      I am building a small plotter. For this, I bought a duet 3 mini 5+ v1.01.

      I use 2x 1.5A nema 17 motors, in config.g I have M906 X1200 Y1200

      I did a few movements (about 1 minute) and suddenly one of the unused driver "exploded" (drivers 0 and 1 were in use and driver 3 exploded). I checked wiring and vin (13.5V) and everything was OK. I plugged the machine with same config (I swapped the SD card) on another board (same model) and it ran for 1 hour without issue with the same GCode file.

      The board has been sourced from E3D on october 15 2022.

      Would that be serviceable under warranty?

        Please share your config.g and the results of M122.
        Also please capture some close up, well lit, photos of the board, particularly the damaged area.

          @Phaedrux Here is a picture.

          I have disconnected the board. Should I power it on without steppers to run the M122?

          Here is the config.g I had running when I tested the motion:

            @kuon was anything connected to that driver output at the time? Is there any chance that the underside of the board (especially in the area of that output connector) could have shorted against something conductive?

              @dc42 Nothing was connected to the driver, and the board was standing on a wood board.

                    @dc42 No problem. It's my first fail in about 50 boards, so I'm not complaining. I will follow your instructions. Thanks
