selftest

Hi

i recently got my MK2s kit and i put it together and updated firmware to 3.1.0 FINAL, when i went to run the self test it failed straight away on the hotend fan, and it would not let me proceed any further with self testing, i checked all my connection and everything is as it should be, i am able to print well enough and the printer seems to function correctly, But it will not self test any ideas?

I am concerned as i have some major upgrades ordered for the MK2s and if they require me to self test and i cannot, then i don't really want to be in the position of frustration

any help in sorting it out would be greatly appreciated

Did you click the button to confirm the fan was running?

Cancel that Joan, i'm being a BAM, i should be taken out and shot, when going into selftest it says on screen "Self Test Start" now what i did was click the button, which i shouldn't have done! i should have just left it alone, while trying to record a vid of what it was doing i didn't click the button and it went into the Selftesting where it asked me if the fan was spinning DOH!

I wish to thankyou Joan for offering me assistance and i'm sorry if i wasted your time 🙁

but it now selftests and the error was on my part
