Creator 5 Pro (C5P) Cutoff Switch for Chamber Intake Fan.  The C5P gangs the control of the chamber intake fan and the chamber recirc (filter) fan together.  You cannot run them separately.  When you set the chamber temperature for high heat and are printing engineering filaments and want to run the chamber recirc filter at high speed...since it is ganged with the chamber intake fan...the chamber intake will draw in cool air and the printer will shut down due to the temperature discrepancy.

This switch electrically disconnects the chamber intake fan.

NOTE: i make no claim for the safety of the printer and have no idea what it does to your warranty.

There is a 4wire mini connector in the back under the printer.  This goes from the motherboard to the intake fan.  You need to put the switch in series with the power to the fan.  This is how I did it, but there are many ways to do it:
1) I pulled out the power wire from the 4pin mini male connector (this leaves you with a wire with a female dupont connector
2) I put a female dupont connector wire in place of the the stock wire, I put this in the 4 pin mini male connector.
3) I connected the male and female mini 4 wire connector back together, and wired the switch in series with the now exposed wires.

I used a M3 x 16 to attach switch housing to printer.  Use M3 any length screws to screw in cover.
