Topic: Antminer S1 wont hash, no help from Sushi or Bitmain! (Read 1272 times)

Your looking in the wrong area.  Check your cards for cold solder joints.   
Symptoms you describe are indicative of this....  "leave it switched off for 30 min or more and turn it back on for some 5-10 min it hashes normally until the errors come again. "
Your ciicuit simply Heats up then errors begin because of the added resistance from the cold solder joint.

Cold solder joint looks Dull compared to a normal solder joint.  Sort of like a stainless steel mirror looks compared to a glass mirror.  (best analogy I could think of)

Anyway If your not sure what you are looking at, take a solder iron and touch\heat up each and every joint so they just melt and then solidify again. (They should look shiney) This will likely fix your problem.
Do not add additional solder and be careful to not burn the board. Have the board laying flat when you do this.  A 25 watt solder iron should work for you;  one of those big soldering Guns might be overkill.

no, only one!

Is this all 30 of them acting up the same way?

Try swapping the control board from one that works.

It sounds like the control board is overheating.

Yes I tried each blade separately and it wont start.

I tried underclocking, still no go!

try underclocking it to freq 325

 I have 4 of them and one is flakey but works wonderfully at freq 325.  only gives 165gh,but still good.

You tried running each blade separately and it does not start you mean?

Tried another control board with the same wiring and blades?



.

Firstly thank you for trying to help. I have tried switching cables (all combination), tried switching PSU's, all 3 available firmwares, nothing. Strange thing is if I leave it switched off for 30 min or more and turn it back on for some 5-10 min it hashes normally until the errors come again. My guess is that control board is faulty and I cant do anything to make it work!

And I did tried running only one blade each time, but no go!

Check wiring from hashing boards to the control board.  It seems like there could be an issue there.  disconnect and reconnect the cables.  Also try a new power supply if you have not already

As Sushi nor Bitmain wont help me although I wrote them several times (Ordered over 30 S1 from them !!!) but no response, god forbid help from the.
I will copy/paste system Log if anyone can help:
