@dc42 It's no problem at all. The offer for a replacement along with how much I picked up over the past few days more than makes up for it.

@dc42
Did a good bit of learning and figured almost everything out. I am having one final issue that you might be able to help with.

For some reason the extruder motor will not extrude.
I tried using the address trick when setting up the tool in the config file with D20.0 with no result, but I can't seem to figure out how or where I could have missed something. Is there anything you could suggest that I check?

Here's the config

@Phaedrux Thanks for the firmware info. That was really simple and quick.

Edit: additionally, I plugged the y-axis cable into the extruder and it worked, so the motor itself is fine.

And I ran a diagnostic after learning a thing or two from above, thank you for that:

@bearer This was the magic move that got things printing. Thanks for the assistance. I was able to get a few prints out of how it's currently set up before I hit some snags. Still working through those, but I just need to do some more troubleshooting before reaching out again.

@dc42
I thank you, and everyone else who stopped by to chat, for taking the time out of your day to give me a hand. But mostly to @dc42, who made me go back and check a fuse I would have never checked. I've never blown a fuse outside of a car audio mistake, so it was never on my radar.

Aside from learning a little about the CAN connections and other confusions I had, I again failed to complete a pretty basic check that would have prevented a great deal of frustration. "There's no way a brand new fuse is defective, it must be the ______"

That one's on me. I know better.

Thanks again. I'll be sure to stop back after I spend another handful of hours with whatever the next challenge is.

@dc42 That's awesome, thank you and @bearer for the help. Thankfully, my humble project fund allowed me to put an order in for the Distributionboard. I've been building a machine from the floor up during this shelter-in-place, having never 3D printed anything before, and while it's an amazingly fun process, I'll take the ease offered by the Distribution board at this point, haha.

Thank you both very much, though. I'm sure we'll be discussing many of my mistakes in the future.
