Got it.

Yea the accelerator. Sadly this is bit hard to actually test fully if
not wired up to a printer. Tho i do have a spare board to serve as fake
printer. Klipper will not know any better :)

OK so its not great but an USB port is also connected to 2x2 pin
connector and secondary 2x2 pin connector slightly away. The USB to CAN
module plugs into these 2x2 pin connectors where one serves as USB and
the other one receives the CAN signal from the module and just wires it
up to an XH2.54 3 pin connector with CAN+ CAN- and GND.

YEP very much my bad on that one. Didnt add the file during git add :)

It indeed does :)

Correct just fixed 5V. Tho with the changes needed in CB1 DTSI file no
change will be necessary here for this :)

Got it will do.
