Title: Gridseed G-Blade - 12V short circuit
Post by: Kulturnilpferd on October 12, 2015, 01:12:23 AM
Hey there,
i have an Gridseed miner and today there was the big bang:
One of the blades gets a short Circuit on 12V...
When i plug in the 12V Power Supply is fast go on and off (short cut protetction or so).
The USB part is working fine, the red light goes on and off.

I haven't overclocked the blade or've changed any resistors. The only thing is I
used an other fan (12V 0.26A)... I read in this thread that when you overclock the blade the mosfets can burn out due overhat, so
could it be that the Mosfets gets too hot or something and burned out because i changed the fan?
On the Other blade side the fan and so on is working.

Optically tere is no burning mark or bad capacitors.

Are there any measure points to test the chips or something?

Please help me  :-[
