Re: Thermistor reads 50 Degrees C but Hot End At 100 C

I made some progress here today that will hopefully help. To use T1 for your thermistor, modify pins.h. Look for the section that says "#if MOTHERBOARD == 301". In that section, you will find variables named TEMP_0_PIN and TEMP_1_PIN. Change the setting of TEMP_1_PIN to -1 and TEMP_0_PIN to 1. That ...

Re: Thermistor 0 always reads 74 C.

Flateric, I measured one of the holes for my heating resitstors in my hot end. It measure about 6mm so I think the ceramic heating element you found on the seemecnc website will fit. I guess the biggest change is that I'll need to run four wires instead of two to heat the hot end. Still, that's much ...

Re: Thermistor 0 always reads 74 C.

Re: Thermistor 0 always reads 74 C.

Would you be willing to provide links to the heating element and thermistors you are using? I really like the idea of reducing the possibility of shorting out those components.

Thermistor 0 always reads 74 C.

Hi, A homing mishap eventually led to my hot end thermistor getting damaged. I was not able to detect any connection between the leads using a multimeter. My replacement will arrive in a couple of days, but I have a problem that I need to resolve before it will do me much good. M105 always reads ...
