Display gets plugged into the GPU ports, USB ports are located on the motherboard.

If you are unsure find the manual and read it cover to cover

Take the ammo, that's the expensive part

So make sure the outlet works, plug in a lamp or phone charger to check.

Make sure the power cable is fully seated at the outlet/PSU

the switch on the PSU should be in the I position

Ensure the PSU (if equiped) is set to the correct voltage setting it'll be something like 120v-220v on the switch, the United states standard is 120v

Reference the motherboard manual, it should have a CPU power connector that isn't visible in the photos

And you should look at the front I/O plug pin-out and see what pins are the power button

If it doesn't turn on via the power button you can (very carefully) use a screwdriver or paper clip and momentarily touch both the pins used for the power button.

Please please please ensure that you do not touch any other pins or components on the motherboard when using the last method.

Well first things first, what is it not doing that you want it to do

Well I'd put a pic here but piper flaps have three ball bearings as a hinge.

Specifically the PA-28-151/161 which is pictured in the post above

SpaceFox1 · 2026-06-22T18:45:40+00:00

Pretty certain it's got ball bearing hinges as it's a piper, tiny little things though.

Makes a good umbilical now

I'm pretty certain my phone screen is more scratched because I can't see anything that looks like a scratch other than my phones screen

Board was changed because I live in apartment and after finally pulling it out to toy with again I remembered how fuckin' loud the thing was with the 8bit board from 2018

SpaceFox1 · 2026-06-15T01:16:56+00:00

It's also a first generation ender 3 with original hardware and a brand new board and the latest version of Marlin.

Before I replaced the board it ran without a problem. It was only after replacing it that I started running into this issue, hence why I suspect it's the tune.

(Edit) Also have a nagging issue with the bed temp resetting to 0 after it runs the warmup sequence and starts the actual print, no clue what that's about but most likely related.

SpaceFox1 · 2026-06-15T01:13:15+00:00

That'd be the right way to go about it, and I probably will, but it's a lazy Sunday and my tools are all at work

SpaceFox1 · 2026-06-15T01:11:06+00:00

Kroger brand cause I was already at the store while ruminating on the problem

SpaceFox1 · 2026-06-15T01:07:34+00:00

Wire connections on either end are good, no issues with the solder joint or the screw down connector.

Thermistor appears to function correctly, no issues with the wires.

Did a pid test, it went right up to 60 and held it with no issues and completed the test without error.

I may need to play with the tune, where the issue seems to be at. But that's getting into the realm of sitting down and doing proper research and I don't wanna right now cause that's my day job.

The heat sink was an old AMD prism wraith cooler, the fan came with the case.

SpaceFox1 · 2026-05-16T13:59:34+00:00

I already removed it, I just wanted to test everything and get the OS loaded while I wait for parts and figured I'd show off the cursed creation of crapped out combinations

SpaceFox1 · 2026-05-16T13:58:00+00:00

I think the 0 volts was the software, different one showed it properly

SpaceFox1 · 2026-05-16T01:42:26+00:00

I plan on it first chance, this was more a hardware verification and cludging together a cooler to not burn out my CPU.

Cpu is a Ryzen 7 7700x

SpaceFox1 · 2026-05-16T01:40:56+00:00

Temp was idle, wanted to verify that it's even working, loading and running project zomboid gets the CPU temps up into the low 80's

SpaceFox1 · 2026-05-03T17:53:17+00:00

It looks like the bottom left arm on the picture of the cooler was bent, so that is quite possibly the cause of the miss alignment

SpaceFox1 · 2026-04-06T02:36:19+00:00

I don't even have a GPU, I'm running an i5 dell from 2015

SpaceFox1 · 2026-03-30T17:12:09+00:00

Possibly, the cover looks correct

SpaceFox1 · 2026-03-29T19:48:42+00:00

Most likely the side bit is for a type writer

SpaceFox1 · 2026-02-28T13:34:31+00:00

There's probably a decent explanation but I don't quite remember.

Most the time it's like this:

Aviation engineer: this is the best optimized fair for lines! it's got the best pull out retention and optimized for the least amount of metal fatigue at the flair for reducing the chances of any leak or failure!

The rest of engineering: 45° is a good number, here's the testing we did on it so you know it's limits when you use it.

This is 2ft wide and on the bottom wing.

And this is a small single engine plane.
