The motherboard of a Cricut Maker device is the machine's control panel.
Follow this guide to fix a Cruit Maker motherboard. You may need to replace the motherboard if your device's cutter or USB port malfunctions. The power button turning red immediately after plugging in the machine may also indicate a faulty motherboard.
The motherboard and the parts surrounding it are delicate and should be handled with care.
Note: Before beginning this repair, turn off the device and unplug it from the outlet.

The lid of my Cricut maker 3 was removable by pulling upwards, while the lid was still open. It slides right off. The prying approach as described in this step is unnecessary, and could break the attachment points if forced.

Press down on the lid.
-
Push the lid outwards to free it from the jointed clasps.
Where is/are the steps to get to the point of seeing the motor? I've got the top cover off, but that doesn't reveal the motor. There are steps missing between 4 and 5.
There are x7 small screws on the inside upper panel that have to be removed as well as x4 long screws under the feet of the machine.
I had to turn on my machine and send a project to it to have the cutter mechanism move out of the way to remove some of the screws. Once all the screws have been removed the case can be pulled away, but you have to be careful when removing because there are some wires connecting the buttons on the case to the harddrive.
Where can I get the replacement part(s) to make the door stay up and open?

How was this removed without damaging the fin?
Hint: Since we've already removed the screws holding the right side cover in Step 9, the cover could be moved inward, providing access to that screw, IF we had already removed the lid attachment/hinge mechanism and rear inside cover. -

Where can we obtain replacement circuit boards? I have a bad power board. The one with the on/off button. Not the main board.
This tutorial is only useful if you can actually replace the motherboard....seems that replacement motherboards are not available.

So do you sell the motherboard or know where it buy one for cricut cxpl301
I too am looking for a replacement board. It was suggested to me that I could contact one of the pcb repair companies. For a fee, they will either check and repair your board or they will copy and print a new board and mail it back to you. You have to send in your board for them to check and copy though. So I guess reputation and reviews would be priority. It would suck to send our boards off and never receive a new one or the old one. :-/.
sooooo, theres no place to get parts? thats stupid...might as well just through it away then...
Bonjour pourriez vous nous dire où trouver la carte mère svp
Something's wrong with this guide - steps 13-29 in this guide are not actually part of the motherboard replacement procedure.
Even with these steps removed, there are other missing steps.
The outer two attachment points of my Cricut were actually glued on, and I had to reach in with the torx driver and remove them while the strip was still on, to be able to get the lid off. On inspection, there would have been no way to lift the strip off in the way described here.
