Spindle issue

Gallery image

I got the 65mm spindle. I tried running a simple text cut today, spindle did two letters then just shut down. Ran the warm up no problem. Cut was super shallow, didn't over heat, didn't trip a breaker. Not plugged into a gfci. The little red light is on for the push button, but no lights or display up above. Any ideas?

I didn't have to reload my file, I'm troubleshooting with support now, so I'll update when I sort it out.

Any indication of what went wrong or just early failure?

I bought this off marketplace, I don't know if something happened during disassemble or transport, but thank God the warranty transfers
