Hi folks

Just a bit of advice for a brand new 3D printer user

Bought a CR-10, assembled all OK, but the Y axis limiting switch was DOA. Doesn’t click on/off, and causes all sorts of motor issues when limits don’t kick in.

I’m sure a replacement will be sent by Banggood…eventualy. But I don’t want to wait a month just to use a brand new printer that should never have been sent without testing.

So, question is, any reason I can’t just replace the sub micro-switch with a locally sourced one? Solder to the existing board?

I’ll have to fudge the solder, as the local ones don’t have long, 90 degree pins, but at least it might work.

Open to suggestions

Thanks

Rocko
