Hi All,

Thanks in advance for the help! I'm trying to run the PID tuner for my extruder and I can't map the part fan to it. I've tried a couple options and haven't been able to find the answer.

The part fan is plugged into PWM Fan 0, below is my config.g.

When I try "M303 H1 S230" the extruder heats up as expected but the fan does not turn on. The fan works normal otherwise.

Thanks again!

Wow... just realized my polarity was backwards, green and blue needed to switch. Sorry for the dumb questions.
Thank you for helping guys!

@phaedrux

Blue is bltouch white, and green is black.

@fcwilt Thanks for the quick reply!

The probe does retract if you touch it when its deployed, and then when I touch it again it will start flashing red and the z will continue to move closer.

1. DWC says:

M558
Z Probe 0: type 9, input pin zprobe.in, output pin nil, dive height 5.0mm, probe speeds 120,120mm/min, travel speed 6000mm/min, recovery time 0.00 sec, heaters normal, max taps 1, max diff 0.032.

2. How do I verify continuity?

Thanks again! Sorry still very new to Reprap firmware.

Hi Everyone, I've been struggling with my BLTouch for a while now and I'm not sure what to try next. I've looked through the forums and no luck yet. Thank you in advance to any help, you guys are awesome!

I'm using BLTouch 3 and Duet 2 wifi RRF 3.3. When I turn on my printer the BLTouch initializes and deploys/retracts twice, when that's complete it has a steady red light.

I can deploy/retract the probe manually using M401 and M402 commands. When I manually deploy the probe the blue light turns on.

The problem is after I've homed the X and Y axis and go to home the Z axis, it does not home. I can press on the probe and it does not stop the Z axis. When the probe goes to home the Z axis the probe deploys and the blue light turns on as expected, but it just doesnt stop the printer.

Again thank you to anyone who can help!
