    Sounds like a plan :)
    Swapping an R1+ to the generic RAMPS is not real hard, takes less than an hour and we have a write up that @Geof did.

    Holler if you need anything explained on the conversion, good luck! Should be a quick swap.

    Well, I hate to say it, but I'm having the EXACT same issue as Tom.

    My heat bed died as well due to connections, so I ordered a new RAMPS board from Robo. Once I reinstalled, my Y axis endstop is not functioning. I triple-checked the connections, looked for obstructions, and did the above-listed tests to make sure the Arduino recognizes that the Y endstop trigger is working and it says TRIGGERED. That eliminates the endstop trigger switch and the Arduino, so I guess I'll be calling Robo today. Argh.
