Antminer T17 will only hash on 2 boards

[JamesB88]

Hello, I am getting an error in the kernal log of my T17 that reads "temperature.c:203:is_temp_sensor_type_correct: Wrong temp sensor type, chain = 0, sensor = 6, type = 0x0, retry." After this, the miner powers down all hashboards and will not mine. I have swapped power supplies, with a known good one from another T17, as well as the control board. I have figured out, that if I disconnect the board chain 0, it will boot up and mine just fine at 27T with 2 boards, so it is obviously an issue with this one hashboard. My question is, is this something I can repair myself, can I replace this "temp sensor," or do I need to send it in for repair? Are there any other suggestions I can try? Thanks!

-James.

My question is, is this something I can repair myself, can I replace this "temp sensor," or do I need to send it in for repair? Are there any other suggestions I can try? Thanks!

First thing you should post the kernel log, the complete kernel log while chain 0 is plugged in, use the code function to paste the kernel log like so

Code:

kernel log goes here

A wild guess based on what I already know, you have one or more heatsinks/chips with bad soldering which has lost contact to the board, it causing a problem in the electricity flow within the board and stopping the temp sensors from working, the control board "thinks" all 4 temp sensors are bad so it does not allow the chain to mine for safety purposes.

What to do and how to fix it is a different topic, i will guide you through it once I see the kernel log.

Hey thanks for sharing this, very much appreciated!

Don't forget to start cleaning first before you touch any components from the hash board because sometimes the sensor giving false temp due to dirt, dust, and corrosion.

Cleaning them first, if you have a thinner, Laquer Flo uses a brush to clean all parts of the hashboard not only the temp sensor.

Also, if you have a hot air blower, you can heat/reflow the sensor parts if the cleanings don't work or if you don't have hotair you can use the oven to reheat the whole hashboard. Get the idea from this video https://youtu.be/8Xanr4jkmEc.

Thanks so much for your reply, and willingness to help me, I truly appreciate it. I will get the full kernel log within the next day and post it here for you to see. What you're saying about the heatsinks/chips soldering makes good since, hopefully this is something I could re solder myself if it is indeed the case. Thanks again!

You will need a few tools and a bit of skill for obvious reason, honestly it is only worth it if you plan on doing it more often, but investing in the tools just to fix a single board might not make any sense economical wise, with that being said if you own a few 17 series it is only a matter of time before the same problem happens to other boards, but let's hope your luck will save you.

Quote my post or mention my name when you post the kernel log so that i get notified about it.

Okay, finally got around to hooking up that third chain, and getting the kernel log. Here it is:

This confirms my previous wild guess, you have a faulty heatsink/chip, don't let the kernel log deceive you, the chances of 4 sensors going down at the same time are less than your chances of hitting a block with an old Nokia, can you take out the board and apply some pressure on all the heat sinks and then put it back in the miner and power it on, this might (with a low probability) fix the issue for some time, but eventually, it will stop hashing again, one or more of the chips or heatsinks need re-soldering sadly, if you are interested in doing so I can post some tutorials and the tools needed for the task.

Also, you could try a custom firmware to see if you get any luck, some people reported some positive results in that regards, use Asic.to for testing, I guess with that firmware if it manages to read 1 sensor at least, the board will hash away with whatever asics it finds, sometimes once you get the board to work for a while on different firmware, going back to the original firmware will make it work too, as strange as it sounds, it happens.

Hi there good people! Can I jump in on a bad T17 train with you? I have an issue of different kind. My miner detects 0 chips on one of the boards when doing initialisation. On every 20-30 restarts it detects 30 chips and it works without any issues until next power outage or something like that. And then it's all over again. It's a T17-42TH

Here's my kernel log:

Things i've tried so far:
I've tried to disconnect all the boards except the faulty one and start the miner, it's still faulty
I've tried to switch cables, connected the faulty board on a cable of a good board, then that chain becomes faulty, so it's not cable issue, the board itself seems to have an issue.
I've tried with a custom firmware. Same result.

Any suggestions?

Just cry like me, i lost the only high end equipment i have (a T17) after a 1 month of use, i cant send it back, cost too much. Soo is time to cry.

Code:

Troubleshooting the 17 series gears make you feel like a robot, it's almost always the same cause for every problem out there, what you described sounds like a bad connection on one of the chips/heatsinks, due to bad soldering in most cases, at least based on my personal experience and the data I collect from research and asking around, a chain that shows 0 asic in most cases has a fault chip number 1, so for your case with the T17, you can use this image to identity that chip.



Keep in mind that it's not always chip 0, the solution to this is to identify the bad chip/heatsink, usually, if the soldering is too bad and just about to fail, applying side pressure using your finger/s can be enough to remove to the bad chip, you have to do that on the 30 chips that have the larger heatsinks and not the once at the back, and once that chip falls off, you have to resolder it, and that is a whole different story.

Also if you are lucky, applying some pressure at the top of all 30 chips (pressing them down while the board is flat on a solid surface) will help with the connection, as weird as it sounds, it does work at times, also the chip could eventually re-solder itself if kept under heat coming from the other working boards, but it is unlikely, so try the pressure trick, if it doesn't work, you will need to remove the bad chip and re-solder it.

Just cry like me, i lost my only high end equipment i have (a T17) after a 1 month of use, i cant send it back, cost too much. Soo is time to cry.

If I were to cry over every board I lost on shitty bitmain gears, I would have caused floods that will sink the other working boards  , losing a board or a miner is something you should get used to when dealing with bitmain gears, sadly I have only released this a bit too late, but better late than never, no more 17 series for me.

In that case I might put the whole hash board into the oven for 10 minutes at 200C. Maybe it will help

How about trying to dump the hex file first from known working hashboard then flash the hex file to this faulty hashboard. It might be a hashboard program issue that's why it gets 0 ASIC.

Don't touch the hardware first because sometimes the issue is related only to software/program so if you put it to the oven the issue might getting worst and won't be able to find the real issue.

Try another possible solution first like this one below

I don't know if this pickit3 will work on t17 hashboard but it works on old hashboards.

Whilst I wouldn't advise this... I have heard of this method working to fix faulty graphics cards!

That will be a perfect way to toast all 30 asics including the 29 chips which are likely working just fine at the moment, asic boards are very different from those GPUs (this does not mean this method will actually work and not damage a GPU) but the chips on these boards have a max temp of 100c or below depending on the model, putting them under heat for 10 mins will most likely break all of them, please don't do that, follow the proper method of fixing the soldering on the bad chip.

Hey everyone, just wanted to post an update here on my Antminer T17, as it might help somebody else out in the future. I tried the trick of pulling out the bad board, and putting pressure on the chips/heat sinks, to no avail. Was still getting the temp sensor errors. So then I decided to try and flash Asic.to firmware to the miner. It's a very simple process. Just created a temporary SD card firmware, and once that was loaded, I simply downloaded their Asic.to firmware and flashed it to the miner... very detailed instructions on their website as to how to flash it. Once I got this firmware running, that 3rd board IMMEDIATELY started working again! It's hashing just as it should, 40T, pulling 2,000 watts and everything looks good on the pool end as well. I couldn't be any happier, thinking I was going to have to send this bad board in for repair. Another thing is this firmware is amazing! There are SO many different settings and options I am going to be playing around with. Supposedly, you can down volt and get an efficiency as low as 45W/Th, which is 10W below the rated 55W/Th on a T17. You can also overclock, and get a much higher hashrate, but I am more a fan of down clocking for efficiency. I have been able to achieve a 70W/Th rating with my S9j's running Braiins OS firmware. Anyway, anxious to see what I can achieve with this new firmware, and it will be going on all of my S and T17 series Antminers now. Thanks so much again for all the help here, and I hope this will be good info for someone else to use.

Thank you for the followup reply. It is helpful for members to get information on miners struggles to get gear to work.
