> Repair or replace the board with out having to buy a complete new hotend, as i already have a V6 kit i want to use.
> A work around to not use a board at all
> Convert to RAMPS in a way that does not require the board, if this is possible

Is there anyway of just doing away with the XYZ mainboard, and being able to plug the motors, sensors and hotend stuff into something else, i'm not using the original extruder, im using one from an ender, so no electronics on it, ive got a V6 waiting, ive removed the enclosure so no fans, and i dont care about the light
