Problem Solving Your Laser Machine - post here

I thought they wanted you to use a piece of wood to push the wires together to short them and see if they spark. It's an amazing spark and pretty loud but not something I would do voluntarily.

I would examine other parts of the system first such as the enable laser button to make sure its working and the connections are solid.

ok , just finishing for tonight. rigged up the test as in the vid .. nothing

Does the test button on the PSU bypass all the safety features, like the water pump ?
I'll double check all the wiring in the morning, and try again

No, test button needs the other safety features to work :)

Ta .. I'll check the pin out diag on the controller and see if they should be high or low :)
