      Fan one has stopped working it reads as 13.5V but will not power a fan. The always on fans work and I have tried connecting the cooling fan to them and that works. So it appears I am having a problem with the board.

      The cooling circuit had been working fine as the fan had been cutting in but now appears to be dead.

      Any idea where to look next?

        Most likely the FAN1 mosfet has failed due to short circuit or overload. What did you have connected to it?

            That seems odd then. Are you sure that you don't have a bad crimp connection on the fan connector? Is there any sign of damage to TR9, the mosfet next to the FAN1 connector? Hads the fan ever been connected the wrong way round?

              No, it was working fine, turned it off restarted it next day and no fan. The fan is noisy but it does work.

                As I have two other not always on fan connections can I just change the firmware to use another one?

                  Yes, you can configure the firmware to use FAN2 instead of FAN1. Just change P1 in the appropriate M106 command to P2, or change F1 in the M563 command to F2.

                      You are not using fan mapping in your tool definitions, so no changes needed there. You already have fan 2 configured the same way as fan 1. So it should just work.

                        New board fixed the issue but I have swapped from a V1.02 to the latest board and now my homing won't work, I get the error. Does it on all 3 axis.

                          Sorry found it the board needs S2 on the Z axis commands, what does S2 do?

                            Amongst other things it overrides the "no movement before axis has been homed" default behaviour in the 1.21 firmware. The other way of overriding it is to include M564 H0 in config.g.
