      I am upgrading my machine from RepRap V2 to V3.

      Most functions are operational. However on tools 1 to 3 the thermosatic fan on the hot end is not turning on when the hot end is heated. Tool 0 hot end fan works correctly.

      I test by setting the hot end to 50C and expect the hot end fan to turn on. IT works on tool 0 but not 1-3.

      I have created test macros to prove the fans are all configure correctly and can be turned on/off by the appropriate commands.

      The temperature of the hot ends appears correct of PanelDue and DWS.

      Board: Duet 2 WiFi (2WiFi)
      Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet 3.4.5 (2022-11-30)
      Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.23

      Extract from config.g for Tool 1

      ; Tool 1 Heater
      M308 S2 P"e1temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138 C0 R4700 ; New temperature sensor allocation
      M950 H2 C"e1heat" T2 ; Heater H2 uses Temperature Sensor T2
      M143 H2 S270 ; Set temperature limit for heater 2 to 270C
      M307 H2 R3.416 K0.391:0.401 D3.02 E1.35 S1.00 B0 V24.1 ; Set Tool 1 Heater 2 Tuned 03/07/2023

      M950 F2 C"fan2" Q500 ; Part Cool Fan 2 to "fan2" PWM 500
      M106 P2 S0 H-1 ; Set fan 2 (P2), H-1=Disable Thermostatic control. Will be Tool 1 Part Fan (M563)

      M950 F3 C"duex.fan3" Q500 ; Hot End Fan 3 to "fan3" PWM 500
      M106 P3 S1 H1 T45 ; Set fan 3, H1=Thermostatic controlled, T45=max temp 45C, Tool 1 Extruder Heastsink

      Any suggestions if this is a configuration issue or something else.

      Should I supply full config.g in this topic?

      Thanks.

        @St-Taw I think you have the wrong sensor in the M106 command. You have H1 when it should (probably) be H2.
        bear in mind the H number is the sensor number (from M308) not the hotend number
