Creality Ender 5 Board Upgrades

[Bruce19]

One wire came off the front fan off the motor. I had thought briefly to solder back on but in further inspection the nozzle fan needed help to start spinning. I think the age, use history maybe some of that very fine web like filament found its way into that fan. Just the two fans NEW are in the $20 area and one fan came with no jst connector. For $28 I get whole assembly NEW and conectors on BOTH fan wires. After a print or two after I get er back up and running, I'll swap out board. I already have extender kit just waiting.

Wow, that's crazy. 28 bucks for a whole new shebang isn't bad though. I paid 20 for 2 BB 5015's, and 36 for a Ni/Cu e3 volcano clone.
I noticed my fan pulled in stingy stuff like that too when I switched to the HMG5. I still run that fan over the volcano one, but now I don't have strings.

Ni/Cu e3 volcano clone ??

Sorry, it's a nickel plated copper volcano clone with nickel plated copper 0.4mm nozzle. It came complete (but unassembled). That and a hardened steel nozzle was 36 bucks. Very nicely machined. Here's the link: https://images.app.goo.gl/gvJC6gbAgAdpLxrp7

over last weekend I installed the 300XL kit from ender Extender. leveled bed manually, glass mirror. but I cannot find setting to go from 235 to 300 for the X and Y travel.

I forget, you're using marlin, right? In config.adh, bed size is in the first few sections for printer layout and configuration
