What is this kit for and why should I get it? Now supports the F1 and F4 CPUs found in these printers.
This kit replaces the stock color LCD to give you more control and features over YOUR printer. The stock Ender 3 S1 LCDs and firmware have been very problematic for people and this kit fixes all of that.
The stock LCD and firmware from Creality is very buggy and do not work correctly with Octoprint and some slicers. This also allows for live Z adjustment (babystepping) and much more control over the core operations of your printer. PID tuning is available as well to fine-tune your hotend and bed temperature regulation. This goes great with our EZABL kit for automatic bed leveling.
Requires a firmware update that you can download for free from our help center. The Ender 3 S1 have a bootloader already and updates with the SD slot by placing a firmware file on the card and turning the printer on. See the firmware page for full details on how to use and update the firmware.
Will this work with Klipper? Yes, these LCDs and the stock board are supported by Klipper firmware. However, due to the complexity of Klipper, our technical support that is included does NOT apply if you are using Klipper firmware. Technical support only applies when you are using our Unified 2 Firmware package that is included.Firmware Links:
Creality is no longer selling the metal brackets that are shown in some videos and/or product photos. We have ABS and PLA brackets as an alternative.

We don’t but any ones for the Ender 3/Ender 3 Pro will fit this kit. Here is one I’ve used before: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3019402

Hi there! We are working on support for the Plus model right now. We sent you an email. The ticket ID is 20198. Please shoot us a reply on that ticket! I think we will be able to get that model supported once we get more information from you.

With this kit, will I still be able to use the CR Touch ABL? I have a Ender-3 S1 Pro with the STM32F401 chip.

Tim Hoogland –
Yes, the CRTouch is supported in the firmware for this LCD kit.
Please note that technical support with the CRTouch itself is not covered under the included technical support with the LCD kit. This means that if you need help using the CRTouch our support does not extend to that since it is not our product. If you did upgrade to our EZABL kit we do provide technical support on our product in conjunction with this LCD kit.

Does this replace the touch screen Ender 3 S1 Pro LCD? Also, will this pause and resume or filament change? Currently impossible to do with touch screen or Octoprint.

Yes this replaces the touch LCD on the S1 Pro. Pause, resume, and filament change all work with or without octoprint. Our firmware is a lot better and properly setup versus the Creality firmware.

Hi there. I am not showing an order from your email for our LCD kit. If you ordered parts from another vendor they may not work with the firmware. If you placed your order under another email for our LCD kit then you can contact our support if you are a customer and we’ll be glad to assist.

If I got this for my Ender 3 S1 Pro, could you send me firmware to work with this module? Would I then be able to use OctoPrint to control the printer with your custom firmware?

Tim Hoogland –
Please read the product page. This is all on there already. Our firmware works with Octoprint 100% as well.

Will this work with Klipper or stock Marlen or does it require your build of Marlen to work
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Tim Hoogland –
These types of LCDs are supported by Klipper but our technical support ONLY covers the use of the kits with Marlin. So yes, you can use Klipper with them on your machine but our technical support will not cover support with Klipper firmware if you need help setting up Klipper. If you are using our firmware then support is covered if you have any questions or problems.
