Protecting MKS Gen V1.1 From electronic shorts with Diode?
November 07, 2015 02:26PM
Hey everyone! So I've lost about 3 MKS Gen V1.1 boards from the wires shorting out. Either on the hot end, bed etc. This is super annoying and costs me £30 and 30 days of waiting each time! I'll admit it's mostly my fault messing around when the printer is on but is there a cheap way to prevent these shorts?

I'm a novice with electronics and stuff but will adding a diode to the connections stop the shorts, saving the board? And other method would also be great!

Many thanks!
