Re: Push-In Wire Removal Trouble on Wire Whip
I believe I'm pushing down into the right hole. I really hope I'm not mistaken. I'm pushing down on the visible bits of metal on the side where there are the 2 holes.

Re: Push-In Wire Removal Trouble on Wire Whip
I had tried a paperclip and couldn't seem to push the tab down hard enough. I'll give it another shot for sure, and I'll see if I can find some pin headers laying around.
Thanks for the advice!

Push-In Wire Removal Trouble on Wire Whip
Rather embarrassingly, I have to admit that I wired my 8-pin connector for the wire whip wrong. The 8 wires are now effectively stuck in place, and I can't find a way to remove them, as I can't seem to push down on the tabs hard enough. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can remove them ...

Re: Trouble after uploading Firmware to V3
I did find the source of the issue... uh how does one go about removing the plug-in wires from the 8-pin terminal at the end of the wire whip?
(At the end of the day, the issue is all my fault for being a little over eager and careless.)

Re: Trouble after uploading Firmware to V3
I removed the hotend from the arms, inspected it, and since everything looked spot on, I put it back in place. I checked the wiring for the hotend whip and the wiring to the RAMBo, but everything looks fine. I removed some of the connectors to unscrew the wires to put them back in, but it didn't ...

Re: Trouble after uploading Firmware to V3
Yes I had tried turning the knob, clicking the knob, and pressing the reset button. Nothing happened.

Trouble after uploading Firmware to V3
Hello, I recently completed a build from a kit of a Rostock Max V3, and I went to upload the firmware for the Max V3. After going through the steps like installing the driver, and clearing the EEPROM, the firmware said it uploaded successfully, and the LCD Display changed (http://i.imgur.com/GsxdvPC ...
