Fried Heat Bed Terminal

Greetings from Colorado!

The heat bed of my Rostock Max V2 suddenly stopped heating up. When I took off the bed, I noticed that a bit of tape had come loose, and the thermistor signal wires were shorting. Then, I checked out the RamBo and saw this:

Ouch :lol:. Luckily, everything else still works and the board itself does not appear to have sustained any physical damage. Is there an easy way to replace the terminal block? Or should I just cut my losses and get a new RamBo?

Thanks!

No need for a new rambo.

You can solder wires behind the board. Or you can solder smaller wires to trigger an ssr.


I am at the same situation. I have soldered wires to drive an ssr. Bur i will be going with normal cables again soon.
