Hello,
I recently got an Ender 3 V2 from a friend of mine, they had it for a couple years but barely used it. I have been using it quite a bit for the past couple weeks, when yesterday it suddenly started making an awful noise. It started mid print, and it freaked me out so I aborted the print job and turned it off. When I turn it back on it doesn't start immediately, but when I make it start preheating it happens. I have a video I am going to try to attach to the post
I speculate it's a fan that needs to be replaced, which I wanted to do anyway since the stock fans are so loud, but I want to make sure it's not a damaged motor.
