Hello!
I'm very new to 3d printing. I've only had my Ender 5 for a few weeks. Apparently I screwed the thermistor in too tight, it ended up snapping, and then the heating rod cables ended up melting.
I ordered new thermistors: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0150 ... UTF8&psc=1
and new Heating rods: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0150 ... UTF8&psc=1
I have twisted the new Heating rod into the base of the old heating rod plug.
The problem is I cannot get any heat onto the heating rod.
Would anyone have any idea or suggestions on why I cant get any heat? Thank you so much for your help, in advance.

Re: Heating Rod Not Heating(Ender 5)
What does the LCD display about the heaters.
If you see an extremely high temperature reading at room temp ("358°C") then thermister is shorted.
If you see an extremely low temperature reading at room temp ("-14°C") then thermister is open.
If you see a reading at room temp ("22°C") then thermister could be working correctly.
If the thermister is not working then you will not be able to heat the hot-end.
