So, like a lot of you using used equipment to start your own opps, I bought an S5 off ebay. It connects to the router and to the pool, except it isn't mining. Upon closer examination, the ASIC Status section (oooo oooo, XXXX XXXX or ---- ----) doesn't show me any information about the ASIC. What's going on here? I already tried a hard reboot and securing all wire connections. Also, I'm using a Corsair 750M PSU. Thank you, mining community!

Look likes your daughter board is faulty.

Make sure all the cable are correctly connected but you don't see both blade. I had a broken daughter board and I had the same behavior ... not sure it is your case tho.

Have a look at the U5 chip (there is another one under the Beagle bone) Make sure they are not burned or see any hole in it.

I had to replace mine to fix it.
