Tried a print with 225c and 34% FL but it didnt extrude, i will try to unclog it tomorrow, after soldering the hot bed. Filament in cura is set to 1.75. Tried to print from sdcard.

Tried to print from sdcard. to verify, i move the Z axis up, like a 30 mm and with the hotend hot at 220c do a manually push to the filament like it was installing for the first time (firmly pressing the gold lever in the extruder, and continue pushing until you see filament extruding fine in the hotend in this moment, stop, do an autolevel in the menu, and then proceed to print from the SD

Couldnt solder the bed yet, have to do it tomorrow. Unclocked it and done that systpro. Now it is atleast printing. Quality needs to be worked at, but i think i will figure with time. Will keep you up date update how the hot bed does tomorrow!

After that it fucked up the print. When you assembled the printer, I think you forgot to tighten the screws where the Z-axis rail is inserted (it has 4 screws in each of the Z stepper), the same thing happened to me but they could not get out,

Yea saw that too, the only one i forgot haha. EDIT: I Resoldered the Hotbed, but it still doesnt heat, so should i chage the thermistor? Also it does not close the top of the prints correctly, rest seems to be quite fine. Attachments:

Push Heat bed still not working, should i change the thermistor? And if yes do i need to pay attention wich cable of it i put on wich port?

For the hotend it shows the room temp. for the hotbed it doesnt, and the hot bed doesnt get heated, even with correct gcode for it.

Ok, disconnect my temperature sensor from the bed, start preheating the bed for PLA and indeed the bed no longer heats, I think it is a safety measure. It is necessary to check if the connector is well inserted against the socket, is something long and mine was very tense with the plastic fasteners of factory. If the connector is properly inserted, check the continuity of the cable pair with a multimeter, from the sensor to the socket. I think the sensor is a simple and easy to find piece in case of need replacement. (I found in laptop batteries taped to lithium cells 18650.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVRny7qUN24 how to mount the sensor

In the spare parts bin there is a spare sensor that should work fine for the bed. It's 2 wires with a glass bead at the end. Simply remove the tape on the bottom center of the heated bed and remove the old sensor. Unplug the old sensor from the board and plug in the new one. Then insert the new sensor into the heated bed, re-apply tape, and try to preheat. If it preheats and reads temp, go ahead and properly secure the new sensor. If it doesn't, the problem may lie with the bed or the firmware.

Well... the Y axis is a savage ! Time to solder a extension wire 🙃

Well... the Y axis is a savage ! Time to solder a extension wire 🙃 That certainly does not look right. The bed wire should exit out of the cabinet from the back of the printer and loop over the stepper. That configuration will cause the leads to break. Did the printer come wired in this fashion? If so, I must have a talk with them.

Ok, after swapping the thermistor, the heatbed works like a charm. Thanks guys for your help! I really appreciate it!
