Re: Heatbed stopped heating 3dp-12 printer
Molex KK got it!! Thank you so much! I looked up Molex, but it was giving the traditional computer style ones only. You've been a great help!

Re: Heatbed stopped heating 3dp-12 printer
Awesome Roberts_clif! That was exactly what I needed to find it. Now it looks like my first Yellow Wire has broken off at the connector inside the molex (?) connector. Is there a way I can pull that metal tab out to recrimp/solder it back into place? If not, how can I replace that connect for the he...

Heatbed stopped heating 3dp-12 printer
I noticed that the heatbed won't heat now. I moved the cable that plugs into the bed (6 wires) and the temp changed briefly now it won't at all. Looks like one of the wires may have broken inside the insulator cover. What's the easiest way to test a wire for connectivity? I'm an electronics newbie, ...

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing
So I've updated my firmware with settings I think mine should be. Are the X Y and Z on the screen supposed to alternate between X Y and Z and a ? mark?

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing
Awesome, I'll definitely change those! Do you mind if I access your google drive? I'd love to check out what you did to the firmware. I'm "starting" to get the settings and I'd like to compare what I think some of the settings should be with what you have.

This is what I did to mine - https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/44461862_10155544771631036_4072164274087133184_n.jpg?_nc_cat=101&_nc_eui2=AeF5ZgH8BrB8YfpFPCua3FknxCBV3EbRM4mJ4j81OB31mJ9iLYTz6nk4ZpVHnWyqtO4iuf23XyiObfONhEHv2BtkKZp8gT0-mrFIbW4Gc3DY3A&_nc_ht=scontent-atl3-1.xx&oh...

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing
Unfortunately I don't have a multimeter, but I'm going to buy 24v cartridges from Hictop this weekend.. Now I just have to figure out the settings to zero my home position. The center changed because I put in a e3d v6 hotend.

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing
Yeah I know, I'm using it as a traditional 1 point z endstop. I never liked the auto adjust. I did it this way so I could level the bed manually at each corner using the thumb screws on the bed. It works perfectly. Did you see my question about an epiphany I had? Is it possible that my old heater ca...

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing
Here's what I have done with the original sensor :) It works to make it like a magnetic Z stop then I level the bed manually and it works perfectly. https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/44707083_10155550150536036_498903177765060608_n.jpg?_nc_cat=100&_nc_eui2=AeFr6YoPG-As3lR9pYrFeM59c4tB...

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing
And to correct something I said earlier, I got the 3dp-12 (auto leveling that I disabled as it didn't work well from day 1)

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing
I tried your suggestions with 1.1.0-RC5 and got it to start printing, but it was way too high off the build plate. I'm not figuring out how to bring that starting level back down. I put the factory firmware back in, and the temps are still fluctuating wildly but it's printing. I'd prefer to figure o...

I bought these

Seems to fit the specs of the hictop one.

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing
I had to replace the old one as it died. How do I find/figure out what thermister I need? I've got the Hictop 3dp-11 printer.

Re: New temp cartridge - won't stabilize long enough to start printing
I let it set for nearly 45 minutes and it started printing, but the head temp is all over the place, from 206 to 220
