Multiplexer not multiplexing?

Anyone,

I just did the multi-upgrade on an MK2S. When I go to load filament from the control screen, I can choose any one of the loaders. However, no matter which I choose, the loader #1 motor runs. I am meticulous but I could have made a mistake. I have reloaded the firmware 3 times and I have remade all my connections 3 times. It's as though the multiplexer board doesn't multiplex. I was very careful not to touch the board chips and to make sure I was well grounded.

What to try now?

Re: Multiplexer not multiplexing?

Which firmware version have you loaded?

Are you sure you have connected to the correct pins on the RAMBo P3 header?

This happened to me also. The issue was that I had connected the control lines to the MUX incorrectly on the RAMBO board. I was slid over one pin.

Please check that the multiplexer connection (Not the extruder) is connected correctly. That fixed it for me.

I checked my firmware 3 times. I checked my connections 3 times. Out of frustration I unplugged everything and started over a week later. Magically, it works now! 😯

I must have had something plugged in wrong, after all. Thank you to all who responded to help.
