@markduet please post your config.g and the start gcode you are using (please use the </> command in the message so the formatting is easy for us to read.

Also please post the beginning of a gcode file that has this behaviour when you print and anything reported in the console when you have this behaviour.

@phaedrux Sounds perfect! Makes my day better reading this.

@phaedrux Thanks a bunch for the quick reply! That totally solves my problem.

@markduet, yeah, that is a no no .... but shouldn't have blown up anything. See the other suggestions for proper hookup.
Edit: forgot about the input caps on the converter but didn't think there would have been enough current for long enough to kill the mosfet. I guess they are more sensitive than I imagined. Since the input caps don't have to do AC to DC conversion, they don't need to be that high a value (or so I thought).

Edit2: I prefer the theory that you inadvertently shorted the fan output somehow (unfortunately it happens, sometimes more than once <sigh>) but what do I know,

Replacing my fets was fairly painless although not real pretty. I opted to cut the leads so I was able to deal with one pad at a time.
