added an ESP01 module to my SKR 1.4 board. But I am facing an issue when I connect it when plugged into a programmer it works fine i.e it shows the Wifi name "ESP" but when I connect the ESP01 module to the board wifi port it only powers on and does not show the Wifi. I am using Marlin Firmware.
I have followed this tutorial for setting up my ESP01: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGgzw-XayEo&t=1000s

These modules have a very horrible reach. Are you maybe to far away?

No, I am very close to the printer just 1 meter away, also the blue led is not blinking in the module when connected to the board. But it blinks when connected to the USB Programmer

Hmm
That sounds like wrong firmware on the board or power is messing with you

Would try this definitely, but mine boots up because red power light on the ESP01 module lights up. Is there anything I have to uncomment in the firmware because my printer is custom build and i have not flashed any pre-build marlin.
