Added a BLtouch to the Ender 3 V2 today, still working on it actually, just took a lunch break.
Step 1, done last night. Get out the JST connector / pin kit, and make my own proper cable out of a 2m extension I had laying around.
Step 2, also done yesterday, print a new shroud for the BL touch + stock fans that will fit the Micro Swiss direct drive I installed recently:
BLtouch secured:
Step 4, the fun stuff, running the wire:
I routed the cables in front of the frame, that way the power connector for the extruder motor clears the frame at the top:
I really dig this shroud. It might not be the best "performance choice", but it uses the stock fans as well as they could be IMO.
It's working fine so far, all cables clear nicely, many tip ties were used.
Now to properly set the offsets for the new shroud. I also replaced the bed springs with silicon spacers, so I still need to tram the bed, redo my e-steps, since I forgot to record the number before flashing new firmware (D'OH!), etc.
