Extruder fan not working

[Krunical]

Hi guys 

I have just received my makerbot replicator and noticed when ever i print that the right extruder fan does not work . I emailed tech support and they suggested i check the wiring to the mother board has not come loose. I checked but and it was slightly loose but not enough for the fan not to work. Now the problem has progressed to the left extruder fan and i am unable to print without over heating the extruders....

Has anyone els experienced this issue?

 can anyone help?

Thanks

Can you unplug the fan and replug it back in?

It has the screw plugs and i removed the teo wires and put then back the extruders climb to 220 without fans moving at all i have stoped trying to avoid damage :(

Sounds like you have a buggy machine.  I would contact support directly and ask them to fix the problem.  You should not have to be dealing with this.  They could answer this better, but it makes me suspicious of the board that first one fan did not work and now the second one does not.  I assume you are running with default settings, right?  If not, you might want to reset everything to defaults and try again.

I suspect the board as well, im in contact with Brian from support now he has sent me two new fans so we will have to see :)
