(sestos)-Assembly Help]]> Well I can show it, but as mentioned I really doubt it will help.  It all looks like spaghetti as finished.  I put most things into connectors so they could be worked on without having to take everything down, but I am not sure that was all that useful now that I am done.  The only decent idea was using a larger gauge coupler and shoving the two positive wires from the switches and the two outputs to the controller in there rather than trying to jumper them on the controller.  I soldered up most everything since I was concerned about all the connections and figured I needed to work on my soldering skills.

(sestos)-Assembly Help]]> I feel your pain as I struggled with it a bit not being at all electrically inclined.  It would be good to put up a youtube video of the whole assembly once your design is stabilized.  I was concerned about shoving all those connection on the controller and got out a solder iron and some heat shrink and connected it up a bit away from the mess.

(sestos)-Assembly Help]]> Pictures of the actual thing aren't really helpful, since you have wires crossing all over the place. What part of the diagram is confusing?

Positive of the power supply goes to the center pin of one of the switches.
A wire goes from outer pin of said switch to outer pin of the other switch.
A wire goes from center pin of said switch to the fan's red wire and to one of the motor terminals.
The fan's black wire connects to Pin 10 on the PID.
One of the heater wires connects to Pin 10 of the PID.
The other motor terminal connects to Pin 10 on the PID.
The power supply's negative wire connects to Pin 10 on the PID.
The other heater wire connects to Pin 7 on the PID.

Check that the motor rotates clockwise as viewed from the hotend. Reverse motor polarity if needed.

Done.

(sestos)-Assembly Help]]> The written directions are just not working for me. If anyone could send a picture of the back of their sestos controller, that would be great. I just plugged in the motor the to power inputs, and tried to connect the other switch and heater with no luck.  I did get the thermocoupler working.

Please help, I really want to get this working soon.

Thank you!
