BLTouch/Fried board
-
You've got to be kidding me......that's such a simple explanation. It hadn't occurred to me that the wiring order at the BLTouch might have different standards. I hadn't found those charts you shared before, but that explains everything. While the BLTouch IS authentic from Antclabs, it is boxed in a Creality box and wired for Creality applications.
At least I understand the reason and how to avoid a repeat. Thank you!

@StevenHerbs That was why I ask if it was associated with Creality in any way. That little change by Creality has caused many cases of magic smoke release. Both by Creality board owners who bought a non Creality BLtouch and vice versa.

@StevenHerbs Sorry to be the bearer of bad news! Hopefully you try that U3 replacement, as that might work out for you!
Agree with @KenW, for reasons unknown Creality and Co have screwed with plenty of DIYers with their change.

@sebkritikel and to add insult to injury, wire order and colors are depending on the lot you get.
