Hello fellow RepRappers!
I've finished my i3 build and I'm very excited to start configuring my rig and make my first print. However, I'm having problems with my power supply.
I had a few brand new 500W ATX PSUs laying around for another project I'm working on, so I figured I would covert one using these directions: [reprap.org]
The only issue is, it doesn't work! No voltage on the multimeter, no 12V light on. I'm assuming I've wired it incorrectly, so I've attached a few pictures to this post. If any of you have experience with this, would you please help me trouble shoot?
Pics:
1 - The Green "PSU ON" wire is connected to a Black GND wire.
2 - The Brown 3.3V Sensor wire is connected to the Orange 3.3V wires.
3 - The Red 5V and Black GND to the 10ohm 10W resistor.
4 - Wiring to the binding posts.
5 - Grey "Power On" wire and the Purple 5V standby -- these are not connected!
6 - Remainder Yellow 12V wires not wired to binding posts, connected together and insulated.
7 - Remainder Black GND wires not wired to binding posts, connected together and insulated.
8 - The PSU switch is on in this image. No fan movement. No light.
Please let me know what I'm doing wrong. Thank you in advance!
