NOTE: The Ender 5 Plus requires a new display (at this time) to upgrade to this board. Please see my other Ender 5 Plus videos using Bigtreetech boards.

ALSO NOTE: There are many reports of people having problems using this board with the stock BLTouch on the Ender 5 Plus. It does not happen to everyone. It did not happen when I tested it myself. The only known potential fixes are switching to a CRTouch, switching to Klipper, or there has been a case of just needing to update the touchscreen firmware to the latest.

With that being said, I CANNOT and DO NOT recommend this board on the Ender 5 Plus at this time. There are too many people having these issues and, while I've improved it in my latest 2.1.1 firmware, I have not been able to provide a fix for this issue. So far it appears to be an electrical issue that software has not been able to work around.

3) Insert it in the mainboard when it's powered down.
4) Power on the printer and it should automatically flash it.
