Because I am very irritated by the noise of a small hotend fan, I decided to get rid of the noise.
Each time the printer is turned on, this toddler operates at full power. It makes a horrible noise. No matter if it is needed or not.

That's why I do not like him very much. But it's not his fault ;-D

I was so mad at him that I invented a quick effective solution.
I dealt with him using one additional connection.
yes, no joke. By adding one wire I got individual control for this small fan. ;-D

Having knowledge from previous kaktus' guides it was not difficult to do.

I unplugged the cable located near the head cart.
An additional cable connected the fan to the EXT2 socket, pin 6
Of course, we're talking about a fan cable with a GND signal.

Using this way I got full control of the fan control from the program used by me.
The solution is fabulously simple and effective. It is therefore recommendable.
That's why I present them.

it's worth listening carefully ;-D
