Worked like a charm thank you for all the help.

sorry for being a bother but this is weird when I tried adding F1 to the end of the line "M563 P0 D0 H1" and connected it to fan 1 I can increase and decrease the fan speed but it won't turn off.
Now when i added
M307 H2 A-1 C-1 D-1
M106 P0 A2
under "custom settings" and changed the fan to the heater 2 it would ONLY turn on and only for a second when I changed the fan speed.

The lack of continuity appears to have been my misunderstanding of how the continuity test works, sorry for muddling things up.
The part fan does work when connected to the "always on". There appears to be a bubble on directly above the D18 lettering on a chip named F3 ED with to lines at the bottom of it. if that is the problem should i either A) try to remove and replace(which seems like a bad idea given my inexperience) or B) is there a way to change the pins from fan 0 to fan 1 in the firmware, or something to achive similar results?

So I got the hot end hotend fan working fine, but I did a continuity test on the layer fan wires straight from the maestro and it said there was no continuity, is there something to replace on the maestro? or a work around? ps thank you so much for your help dc42

Idk if this is already dead, but now they work, but as with before they dont work when placed underneath the smart effector and attached to the heat sink and layer cooling duct respectively. But before I attach them, same plug and everything just not mounted, they work fine, no loose wires either. Thoughts?

yes they do, i must have somehow melted something in the smart effector pcb that is shorting out the fans and lights. Are they routed together or very next to eachother?

so it would appear that everything on the meastro board is working while everything on the smart effector is working EXCEPT the lights and both fans (i routed around them to test them)

oh yes i was using the maestro board, with the hotend fan and layer fan disconnected the lights arent working either. i fear i may have destroyed it somehow. but at least the probe still words.

something happened, smoke, the + hot end fan path melted the coating off then no lights either. where is the 1amp fuse/what is it labeled? and I don't know the revision but its says straineffector v1.3 cerl ohl 1.2

update: while checking voltages appear to have fried the board, I don't know how would duet like it to inspect it?

So I've always had issues getting my lawyer fan to work when mounted, it will work fine when it's not in mounted but as soon as I mount it it loses some or all of the powe (with multiple 12v fans) I tried wrapping it around the long way hoping to get it to work but it melted the wires and they touched. Now I cant get any power with any fan. Is there something I can check further upstream to test/replace to make it work again?

Hey guys, after a successful print last night, all prints about 25 layers up on prints my printer thinks its done and moves to x-90 y-50, even the same gcode i used last night. using a duet maestro board, smart effector and cura 3.6. any ideas?

hi guys, I was wondering what the prefered method for making the maestro wireless is. Is it possible to hook a wifi dongle to the micro usb? I've spent the last 3 days trying to get the raspberry pi 3b to work as a bridge to the internet for it to no avail so now i'm throwing in the towel and looking for something easier, any suggestions?

@dc42 so I solved it I had the positive and negative wire from the psu plugged into the opposite screws. Haven't rewired it to see if there's permanent damage will report back to keep it effects documented (this is my walk of shame)

@dc42 thank you, to the best of my knowledge i had it wire correctly. Would that fry the whole board causing it to be inoperable and hiss even when just the 12v power is connected? also is there a fix for this other than buy a new board?

The stock hotend heatsinks fan for the anycubic linear plus

Solved: I had the "COM" wire plugged into the positive and V+ plugged into the negative switches then and everything works.
OP: My duet maestro turns on via usb, but when i wired it all up and tried to run 12v power through it it shorted the whole system the lights attached to the same power supply cut as well. Also the "always on fan" port started smoking, I immediately cut power and detached all the wires. when i plugged the usb power in all lights turn on normally (the usb power light, red 5v and green 3.3v). Interestingly there appears to be no visible damage to the board. Thoughts on my next move. Edit: I tried turning on the board with just the power attached still overheating still smoking, I want to cry I've waiting so long for this and trying to get my delta working and this is the millionth setback idk what to do, (ps: I hate that I love 3d printing so much)
