      I'm on my second Duet now and to be honest I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The board is fine and so is everything else, I turn it off and when I turn it back on the fans are at full power and the wifi module doesn't flash, the panel due doesn't connect and the duet is unresponsive. I followed every step to troubleshoot all the way down to erasure and reflashing. When I turn it on I get 3 red LEDs and 1 green LED. The wifi chip gets VERY hot and bossa on both apple and windows cant find the board. I need the board for an engineering event this Friday so I would appreciate quick responses thank you.

        Wifi chip getting hot is an indication that the board has had 12v or 24v applied to the 3.3v line somewhere. Your previous thread had similar indications, so I suspect your wiring is faulty, or a device that is connected to 12v/24v is faulty.

          Currently nothing is plugged into the Duet board. Is there anything I can do?

            once the overvoltage has been applied to the 3.3V line the board is damaged

                you should first find where your wiring is incorrect before you buy a third duet and fry that as well.

                  Ok so where are the 3.3 and 5 v pins exposed on the board that I have accidentally touched and overpowered them?

                    what did you have connected to the board?
                    where was the board mounted?

                      Check that your hotend wires are not shorted to the heatblock or other parts of the printer. You can use a multimeter to check continuity between leads of the thermistor and heater to each other and to the points around it.

                        It's possible that the hotend wires shorted but maybe more likely that I accidentally did something with the fans, I had 2 always on and 2 pwm fans. I had the board mounted vertically to a 3d printed base.

                          I had the board working just fine for months prior

                            Do you have any devices such as endstops, Z probes or servos that draw power from +3.3V on the Z probe connector or an endstop connector or the expansion connector; or that draw power from +5V on the expansion connector or the PanelDue connector?

                              No servos, I had LEDs in the unused extruder slot with that slot being turned into a tool, no problems there. I have 12v fans plugged into buck converters before the duet to make those are ok. No expansion board and no z probe just 3 low end stops 3 pin.

                                Do you mean the unused extruder heater output?

                                I have 12v fans plugged into buck converters before the duet to make those are ok.

                                Please explain exactly how you have wired them, and whan position the V_FAN jumper is in.

                                No expansion board and no z probe just 3 low end stops 3 pin.

                                What type of 3-pin endstop, and how have you wired them? Any chance they could be shorting against ant metal parts of your printer?

                                  The v_fan jumper is the same position as it came, the unused extruder output was powering the LEDs though not at the time of death and the 3pin endstop is the same that came with the ender 3 and I haven't had any issues with them and their wiring is insulated from each other.
                                  The fan I had stepped down was connected with this

                                  https://www.amazon.com/MCIGICM-step-down-Converter-3-0-40V-1-5-35V/dp/B06XZ1DKF2/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=buck+converter&qid=1556219792&s=gateway&sr=8-4

                                  and the inputs were plugged directly into the always on fan slot.

                                    Thanks, I'm discussing this with Tim and my colleagues.
