Question Do I need to purchase a new pcb set?

[Sully_:0)]

What voltage is the battery sitting at? It might be too low for the PMS to engage, and need some charging

Sitting at about 3.5 v . I don’t even hear the fan when I turn it on

— I got the wii itself from crazygadget and he send pictures of the trim working so that shouldn’t be the problem unless I messed something up

***Edit***
So I de soldered pretty much everything from the PMS. I want to test to see if my PMS is damaged or something. What all is required to be connected in order for the fan to turn on?

Just the lithium battery is needed. Try charging the battery through the PMS for a while and see if anything changes.

Hey again! I took a break for a couple weeks but I’m back to it.
So I took everything apart from the backside and I still want to just test the fan with the PMS. Right now I have the batteries connected (both measuring 3.57 v), and the fan connected to the PMS and that is it and nothing is happening. Does anything else need to be connected? I did not charge the batteries like you mentioned because I had already taken everything apart. Let me know what you think! Thanks again

** I am confident in the solder connections btw , I’ve gotten much better so that shouldn’t be the issue

You'll need to wire the power switch / button to the PMS / ground.

Omg so when you said this I looked and realized I had never soldered the power button to the PMS....... So I de-soldered the whole backside for nothing lol but at least I know what the problem was. Thank you!

Okay I see what I did before. There is a btn pad on the PMS PD 2. Yet only 1 btn spot on the PMS itsself. So would I just solder two wires on the PMS button pad? One wire going from the power switch to the PMS pad and one wire going from the PMS pad to the PD 2?

Ignore the PD-2 btn pad and just wire the Ashida PCB btn pad to the PMS. The PD-2's button isn't used in this build
