Sculpfun S9 no longer responding

Hello everyone,
our Sculpfun S9 has stopped responding to Lightburn after a couple of years of use. When connected it responds with:
Grbl 1.1h [‘$’ for help]
and nothing else.
The controller is “XY DLC V1.1” and a red led is on when the usb cable is connected.
I have tried changing the cable, different pcs, different CH340 drivers but nothing changes.

I am starting to think that the problem is the controller, but was wondering if anyone had had a similar experience or any advice.
Cheers!

Witam mam niestety złą wiadomość , padła płytka . Nie tak dawno sam to przerabiałem ze swoim S30 Ultra .Zalecam kontakt z Sculpfun lub samodzielny zakup płytki.

If the machine responts with the version string, it’s probably still working. Download the firmware from this page: Firmware Update & Settings - Diode Laser Wiki and follow the guide on how to flash it. You have the older 8bit version of the mainboard. Use the respective guide.
