You are the first person i know to truly have this problem. I thought it was all bs when my mobo blew. I replaced the cable anyway.
Hi,
one week ago I toasted the mightyboard of my replicator1 exactly at the end of a print. The 5V voltage regulator burnt.
The Makerbot guys sent me a new mightyboard and a new Xendstop cable so I cut the external insulation of the old one.
I think that the attached picture clearly explain what happened (a short between the red wire and the external one / black one).
Is there anyone that could suggest a solution for this kind of problem ?
Where can I put a fuse ?
Does anyone know about any better cables?
I bought the Replicator in November and I have printed for no more than 30 hours before the board failure.
I would like to avoid this problem in the future.
Thanks
Luciano
