- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 พ.ค. 2024
- Hey everyone! Welcome to my quicker tutorial and comparison video of the Creality Ender-3 Silent Mainboard!
In this video i'll take you through the process of installing a Silent Mainboard into your Ender! With this mod the printer becomes nearly silent with the loudest item being the fan. It's an awesome upgrade especially if you have thin walls in your house!
Near the end of the video i compare a stock Ender to my new upgraded one to really show you the noise difference. Hope this helps!
Here is a link to the Official Creality Mainboard but you can also find them on Amazon and other electronics outlets

At 2:40 there is an excellent example of why you should move the bed slowly ! Watch the display light up from the stepper motors becoming generators . ALWAYS move the bed slowly to avoid damaging the electronics !
FYI that board does have a bootloader so any software upgrades can be done via sd card, flashing has gone forever:)
How do you use a sd card
How do you use the Ed card for software upgrades
@@DarkWolf-fc1bf just put the .bin file in the SD card then put the sd card in the ender 3 and it updates automatically
Just a FYI, the reason the X Y Z & E plugs appear to be backwards is because on the Ender 3 V2 and the Ender 3 Pro that 'motherboard' box is mounted upside down with the fan on the bottom, probably to prevent bits of plastic shrapnel from falling inside. Looks like they designed it for the V2 and Pro in mind but obviously still compatible with the original.
Smart. Makes sense
Thank you for the tutorial! I just got a mute mainboard for my Ender 3 Pro. Man what a night a day difference for the noise.
Hey Frank! Thanks for the tutorial, I’m not sure if you remember my comment from a few weeks ago, but I basically just told you that I’m printing a MK 85 suit on an Ender 3. This video helped me a ton, cuz the noise was really bugging me. Keep on doing what you’re doing man!
Thanks for the great tutorial, just swapped mine and cant believe how quiet it is either!
you are my favorite 3D printer channel. thank you for being so straight to the point and giving the information we need. your the best!!
my printer is in my room so this helped alot. i also replaced the fans with quiet ones
Adding this to my upgrade list for sure 👍
Thanks for the tutorial I am definitely going to upgrade my ender-3
Thanks for this video. Can’t believe how quiet my printer is now.
Thanks for your help ! I followed through your video and changed my own board to a silent one, and your video was very helpful (expecially with the fan1 fan2 bit). Thanks again !
Hey frank! Thanks for the tutorial, helped me lots
Thank god for upgradable boards....ill be getting the SKR mini e3 v2 since its just as quiet but i used this to see the sound difference. i have my Ender 3 in the laundry room so its out of the way and not so loud. already have Noctua fans on the way too since theyve been in my gaming pcs for years
Thank you lots for this tutorial, just upgraded my printer with your help! 💜
Great video! I wish I read the part about unscrewing to loosen the contacts, before I wrestled like crazy with the pulling the wires out with the contacts still tight! Oh well, first time for everything... Also found it much easier to put the wires back in before I screwed the allen key screws back in. And I found out at least one of the bigger allen wrenches has a magnetic end.
Fyi the green terminals are actually connectors you don't have to remove the cables you can just swap it over. Not a bad idea to remove them though to check tightness. Great tutorial
Hi, just wanted to let you know and the people that watch this, it is a lot easier to unplug and replug in all the wires if you do it while it is out of the housing, it is also much safer. Also, anyone doing work with motherboards etc should try to get themselves an earth wrist strap as your body put off static electricity and circuit boards don't like static. One last thing, please move the bed slowly so that it doesn't have the motors making power when you move it.
Definitely going to be doing this soon, is that a new Ender 3, looks brand new
I just got my skr mini e3 v2 silent board today
Commenting in case this helps others who found this video and were confused by some of the conflicting comments.
If you have a multimeter, use the continuity test setting (represented by a triangle with a line through it, and a little sound signal). Test the pins on your stepper motor, by holding leads to the pins individually. The multimeter will sound on the two pins that belong to one coil.
For my origial pin set up: 1-2-3-4
1&2 and 3&4 were a pair, so Coil A = 1&2 and Coil B = 3&4. To reverse the direction you need to swap coil A with coil B
I ended up flipping the pins to a 4-3-2-1 configuration (stepper motor side) and solved the issue. This was on an Ender 5 for a silent board upgrade.
TLDR:
Test your stepper motor to figure which pins go to which coil and swap Coil A pins with Coil B
Hello!! Thank you for this amazing video. I have a question, after doing this and setting new calibration is there an option to do it manually as before or I must buy the level component for this? Thank you!!!
thank you for the video! so as long as I select ender 3 using your link, I don't need to do any firmware updates? it's just plug and play??
Thanks man
Yooo I got this printer !! V2
I thought you didn’t have to worry about polarity as to which red wire goes into which green slot of the hot end and bed heater?
This video was so helpful but now that I change the board, I get fluctuations in the hotend temperature
7:00 BL Touch is a pretty risky search term
Just purchased the silent board for my Ender 3 Pro. Guess I’m gonna have to rename Whistler.
You should have a bootloader pre-loaded on that board. I installed the 1.1.5 (4.2.7) board in my Ender 3 and I definitely had one - flashed to latest TH3D right out of the box.
Hmmm I was having trouble getting it to read on the computer. Weird. Might have to do an amendment. Sorry my guy!
It's a 32 bit board, so you won't be able to use the Arduino software. Maybe that was the problem? I had to switch to Visual Studio Code, and add PlatformIO and Marlin build addons to create the new image, but overall it was far easier than flashing the old board. Also... I had the same reaction to how quiet it was as you did: "Holy Sh..."
@@DriftwoodDaveM well I think that’s it really. The plug and play versatility instead of having to populate your own build ya know? Running the arduino system on the other boards it’s just so much easier especially with TH3D
@@FranklyBuilt I only did the flash to get PID tuning from the LCD, but otherwise there's no great urgency to change the stock firmware on that board. Anyway I'm certain you'll sort it out, and probably teach us all a thing or two along the way. Thanks for another great video Frank, your channel is my new "go to" and look forward to your updates. Even though I've been printing for about 2 years now I can honestly say you've shown me several ways I was doing things wrong (or not as well as they could be).
Dude thank you so much for that. Yeah I’m 100% okay with the stock firmware for now. The board did its purpose. I’m a firm believer in “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” so I only upgrade what’s needed.
i just take main board off to the side match wires from other one just plug in to upgrade works good that way its how i did while when replacing wire from old board to new board when i woked on furnaces so if yo do this dont have to mark any thing
Two reds is a nozzle heater , and second moment, does thermistor have polarity?
Do you have to redo your E-steps after you put in a new board?
Mine came with the 4.2.2 board with the crap chip and zero firmware. Also, the connectors were hot glued to ports so... Screw me.
The two braided red wires for the hot bed and hot end puled out of mine and got mixed up. any advice here? haha!
Not sure if you'll see this but any help would be appreciated. I've got an ender 3 max and after making a big print the bed is showing a negative temperature and makes a loud continuous beep. I can still heat my extruder but I think I might have a burned out bed thermistor. Any other suggestions would be helpful.
I need this
I am facing the following issues after proper connection:
1. The fan is not running (it just twists for a fraction of a second and then remains inoperative)
2. The LCD simply turns ON (it is not showing any information, it is completely blank)
Kindly let me know if it is a voltage issue (12v/24v). I am not sure about my Ender 3 whether it is 12v or 24v but yes 24v has been written on the fan of the motherboard.
Furthermore, this control board can't be replaced with the 8 bit v1.1.4 board 😭
What have I missed? ender 3 pro, motherboard v4.2.7 everything looks good. But I only get a blank blue screen on the control panel. The one fan does run as yours. Can you take a guess what I have missed. Amazon ad says it is for my printer, firmware?
You might want to mark the Bed thermal and the nozzle thermal wires, their right next to each other and the same white colors.
Can I assume you are talking about "TB" and "TH" on the board. Rechecking all my wires as my screen lights up, nozzle fan come on but nothing else. Computer quit at 14 hours into a 2 day pring
Hey sir have you tried a 12v fan it is quite than the 24v fan which in the Ender 3
Hey Frank I did that same upgrade and I got the CR touch and had to flash the mother board for the CR tocuh and know won’t work and makes a loud beeping sound?
Hey I bought a silent motherboard for my ender 3 and now auto home does not work, It stay in place and eventually just crashes does any know how to fix it
Hey so they hot bed and other one the two red ones I didn’t label them and I don’t know if they are backwards what do I do?
I have put this board in and the temp won't stop at the set temp what wire did i mess up?
Soooooo... what happens if i switch the two red wires?
What should the Voltage be set to?
Mine just beeps. I did install the v2 screen. I'm going to try the regular screen.
Mine refused to autohome ,it wouldn't read the card,they are sending me a new mother board....
But does it help with the lights flickering in the house?
must i chnager the motherboard or put dampner ?
my control panel wire does not want to come out how do i get it out
when i saw it had a fuse, that is a HUGE upgrade.... i may be stupid af but doesn't a fuse stop it from shorting out cause of my idiocy? >.>
does this work with the ender 3 pro?
They have it labeled at the bottom of the motherboard
Do yo recommend de artillery sidewinder x1
Kind of. But I prefer the cr-10s
Should I get a ground bracelet while replacing the board?
I mean it probably wouldn’t hurt
I installed mine today and now my power supply goes "click click click click" anyone have this issue?
2:44 woah the screen clicked back on from the electricity generated by the bed moving
The fan too
do you have a spare board by chance
Does this slow down the motors to prevent noise? It looked like it did at around 12:19
Nope. Nothing moves slower
Every connector on the board of mine is hot glued in, kill me
Hi
Can you share the file for your tool holder? I like it all in one collection and mine didn't come with one
I don’t have the file anymore haha it’s on thingiverse somewhere
@@FranklyBuilt I was asking because I have been looking for a while and haven't been able to find one that compact
Oh I wish I still had it bud. I’m sorry
Can u do one for the cr10
I do one already
Hey I just installed mine and when I turn the printer on it just has a blue screen.do you know how to fix this?
probably needs firmware reflashed
probably needs firmware reflashed
Is Creality taking the Pi.s? an upgrade board with no bootloader! how lazy is that?
The SKR E is a much better option and price
I am considered a Creality Fan Boy so this and the fact that Creality upgraded the printers with 8-bit boards to 32-bit but without silent drivers really disappoints me.
for some reason, when i “auto home” it goes like 10 millimeters up and i dont know how to make it touch the bed when i auto home
Did u fix this? Mine is not moving the z axis down at all
Board just arrived, the 3D printer stays in my room, hopefully this works
did it work?
They hot glued all the wires in mine…
How does the main board make it quieter exactly ?
It has special stepper driver that regulate the power and junky nature of the stepper motors
@@FranklyBuilt ahh ok. That was a quick reply. Thank you !
Is the ender v2 worth it
I think when it’s on sale yeah
2:20 me who just unscrewed the bottom panel 😳😳
just did this and its broke
First
Hi
