Topic: DaVinci 1.0a extruder not heating, lcd screen blank
It broke about a year ago. It's been sitting dead for long enough that now it feels like it's a lost cause anyway, so I feel like I might as well try tinkering with it a little bit more and see what I can do.
The components failed at the same time, which leads me to believe it is an underlying issue rather than just a failed extruder or screen.
It's a davinci 1.0a
It was flashed with repetier 0.92.
The extruder will not heat up anymore.
The LCD screen is blank. I verified that the wires are all tightly in place and not damaged from what i can see.
The buttons still make beeping sounds when they are pressed.
The bed still heats up.
At the time when I was still attempting to work with it, it displayed all the temperature information through octoprint and was fully controllable other than the extruder not heating up.
I'm looking for the cheapest way to try to get this thing running again. Any ideas where to start?
