I got a new extruder from folger tech and attached to it is an extruder fan. From what I've seen on the forums you are supposed to attach the fan to the Ramps 1.4 board at D2 and the fan I received had a female attachment at the end. I was wondering if there was a better place to attach it, so I would not have to solder it directly to the board?
D2? You need to power the fan through one of the mosfet outputs, usually D9. Also, if its a hot end cooler, you can just attach it straight to 12V, it only needs to be controlled if its a part cooling fan.
Thanks Andrew Smith that makes much more sense I was wondering how it would be possible and thinking of attaching it to a power supply, but I wanted to make sure
