Quick answer

Pick the symptom that matches your miner and D-Central walks you through a step-by-step decision tree — from the quick checks to the board-level call — grounded in our Laval repair bench and the Mining Bible. Every path ends in a clear diagnosis, the matching error-code guide, and an honest fix-it-yourself vs. send-it-in answer.

Miner Powers On But Won't HashIf your miner powers up, the fans spin, but it reports 0 hashrate, the chips are either not initialising or a hashboard…Fans Spin But No HashrateFans roaring at 100% with no hashrate almost always means the firmware never got a healthy hashboard online, so it defaults the…One Hashboard Missing / Fewer ChipsWhen one chain shows 0 chips, or fewer than spec, the daisy chain is broken at a specific point. Everything downstream of…Miner Overheating / Thermal ShutdownAntminer firmware holds the chips in reset and drops voltage to zero above ~75°C to protect them. Recurring overheats are almost always…Miner Won't Boot / No Web InterfaceNo dashboard, no IP, no response usually means the control board never finished booting — corrupt storage, a bad firmware image, or…Hashrate Lower Than ExpectedA miner that runs but underperforms is usually losing chips, throttling on heat, or running a conservative profile. Find which one.Miner Keeps Dropping Off the NetworkIntermittent network loss costs you shares and makes a miner look "down" when the hardware is fine. Isolate cabling vs DHCP vs…PSU Dead / No PowerBefore condemning a PSU, rule out the wall, the cable, and a downstream short pulling it into protection. APW-series PSUs are repairable…Fan Error / Fan NoiseA fan fault will stop a miner outright to protect the chips.
