Defective generator, problem Nano V2

Interesting advice. I would do it if it was easy. I have not took the main board out yet to look at the Output connector so not sure how easy it is.
I also read another safety feature to add is a Diode to protect against grounding the Output. Few burned out their 74HC125 by connecting Fout to Input ground.

that’s what i said. they have overloaded output, and because output current is limited, it can be damaged.
Diode can’t help you. Resistor! only resistor. :slight_smile:
you must find datasheet of this particular 74HC125, and search there - max rated output current. seems it is 30 ma. then R(omhs)=Uoutput(volts)/Imax_rated(ampiers). and solder it in serial.
regards.
