Description

@bigtreetech consider updating manual, pinout and/or schematic diagrams to describe connector type and pitch details.

For example, am unable to figure out which crimp inserts to use for the EBB36 power/CANBus connector?

The EBB36 4 pin CANBus connector seems to be 3mm pitch based on my cheap calipers, and a dimension inspection of the .step model loaded into Fusion 360. Ideally, the manual/pinout in this repo would have these details.

CONN-TH_4P-P3.00_30002-04WA-T1P seems to be also known as Molex Micro Fit 3.0 for anyone else looking.

Multiple people have burned time on this very question, see https://www.reddit.com/r/BIGTREETECH/comments/12vhc55/4_pin_connector_on_ebb36/

Something like this could be helpful ...

Research direction

Locate the EBB36 and EBB42 manuals, pinouts, and schematic diagrams in the repository, then compare their connector references with the details requested in the issue. Confirm the connector type, pitch, and names for the power/CANBus connectors, and update the relevant documentation so users can identify compatible crimp inserts without external research.
