    Sorry for the delay. I get off of work late and I had to start a 3 hour print after that was finished I was able to check under the hood.

    This is what I have found in the attachments below. The only place I could find an open place for a fan is attached also. Would it be safe to hook up a fan to this location?

    Also it is missing the terminal block where you can screw the wires directly onto the board. Does anyone have an idea of where to purchase this piece or what it is called?

    Finally, the fans on the extruders are rated at 24V should I purchase another fan at 24V or would a 12V or 5V work also?

    "Pluggable terminal block" is how I've looked for similar parts in the past. In the USA, Mouser and Digikey would be where I'd start. In the UK, someone like Farnell. You could inspect the orange plugs for any kind of markings that might suggest a brand. Judging by appearance, the orange ones appear to be WeidMuller BLZ 5.082 a ways down on this page at CPC/Farnell - http://cpc.farnell.com/1/3/terminal-...w-socket-block. Can't help with the other questions.
