Hacking L3 Antminers because someone asked me to.

[lightfoot]

Ok, new project: In addition to the Titans and GPUs, I was asked to take a look at an Antminer L3 that  appears to be dead on arrival. As is my custom I'll post my findings here and hopefully we will find a way to get them working without having to send them to China or wherever.

I'll post summaries of findings here, technical details below. Feel free to contribute thoughts, pictures, or comments.

  Always love reading about your work.

Thanks. First question is what are the symptoms of a problem? Will start looking that up while I wait for some close-up pics of the board.
