RE: Duet conversion
@droftarts Got it. It was the delta radius issue. I didn't think that would prevent the move, but, apparently it did. Thanks.

RE: Duet conversion
Changed to X2, Y2, Z2, LED's now illuminate when away from end stops, printer homes, but still cannot move axis.

Duet conversion
So, I've used the duet on a few (5 or 6) printers for several years, but it's been a while since I was in the nitty gritty of setting one up. I inherited an old delta and switched all the wiring over from the MKS setup. I can access the web portal and home the printer, but I cannot move the printhead. Any ideas on what might be going on here? Endstops seem to be correct, as it homes and the LED's light up upon homing.

Z-axis wiring burnout
So, I've had this printer running at work for years. Came in this morning after a successful print and tried to start another. Z axis drive was going bonkers. Opened up the back cover and found burned connector. Any ideas as to why this may have happened?
Is this board toast?
More info: The Z-Axis has two 1.5A motors running in parallel on it: https://www.jugetek.com/product-page/nema17-60mm-1-5a-high-0-65nm-high-torque-stepper-motor -
Gnarly Banding
Anyone have any ideas on what the issue(s) might be with my delta? I have four printers here, two deltas and two TF5's. Neither of the FT5's show this issue (after years of upgrades) and neither does the large delta that I built from scratch.
This print is off the first delta I built a few years ago (FT kit with upgrades) and I've never been able to get it to perform as good as the others. I'm wondering if it's thermal in some way since it seems to get worse in the winter, or if it's just some mechanical problem. I've never understood why it does the helical pattern either.

So, I blew up a WK8 P9 at TR5
As the subject says, I have a Duet WiFi, V1.02, and a wire was ripped from the hot end assembly (fan wire, if I recall correctly) which shorted the board. The board boots up but it's not working correctly anymore. It appears as though a component labeled "WK8 P9" (transistor, I assume) with three leads on it located at TR5 blew up.
Can someone tell me what this is so I can attempt to get a replacement and fix the board?
Thanks.

RE: Motor Driver Madness
Update:
I had been trying to save the print, but eventually just gave up and rebooted the printer this morning. Guess what.. It's working fine.
Is it possible that the driver overheated?

Motor Driver Madness
So I've been running couple of printers with Duets for a while now (years) and I just had my converted FT5 (an XY variant) wig out on me. I was 97% of the way through a 5 day print when one of the stepper motors started acting like it was wired incorrectly, making grinding type noises and moving strangely.
I thought maybe one of the wires to the motor was frayed or something so I ran a new set in through the harness. Same problem.
I then ran a separate set of wires outside the machine from the board to the motor. Same problem.
I had another new stepper motor lying around, so I ran the new wires to it and ... same problem.Did one of the stepper drivers die on this thing? I can't think of anything else it could be at this point.

RE: Restart a print after fault pause and timeout?
It's right there.... in my last post... the third picture. I'll post it here again, but this time not as a picture?
