The boards look a bit different, if it’s a good replacement, it should work, but I’d expect it to be similar.
I don’t know where to tell you to start debugging these, as they are usually not user serviceable… If mine failed, I’d try it to, but generally you run into difficulties.
I know how most of these work, generally, but am clueless as to what LD +/- actually mean. Most LED modules have ground, supply voltage and pwm.
I assume there is another board in the body somewhere?
Maybe @misken can advise you with a more up to date response..
After a few attempts, I finally found the solution.
I’ll explain it here in case anyone else has the same problem.
As I said in the first post, my module’s drive board basically died.
I couldn’t find an original Sculpfun S9, BUT the LUNYEE board (I found it by the title: 5.5W 12V Laser Driver 5V PWM for Laser Engraving Cutting Head Laser Module Engraver Wood Working Tools Accessories) worked for me as a replacement.
At first I thought it was a compatibility issue, but my mistake was the order of the wires.
Here is the position of the cables:
From what I’ve gathered, it has everything to do with the material I work with (synthetic leather, PVC and polyurethane).
My machine basically only engraves synthetic leather and occasionally cuts sheets of wood up to 4mm thick.
The problem is the steam that comes out of the material. I didn’t imagine that I would need to clean the laser module every two days. After a few weeks of work, the result was oxidation and corrosion on the module.
