I have a da Vinci 1.0. I've flashed it to Repetier 0.92. It took me a few tries before I finally succeeded, but the flashed firmware was working great!

I encountered the dread "Heater decoupled" error message and I've been on an odyssey to figure out how to fix it ever since.

I checked the fuse on the board. I came across conflicting advice between here and other sites on what I should be looking for, but I think I figured it out. I concluded that the fuse had blown, so I installed a 4 amp fuse on a fuse holder that I soldered into one of the  wires behind the plug for the extruder.

No change.

I read in a few places that the heater decoupled test might need to be tweaked so I tried adjusting it to different values according to what others had done.

No difference.

I checked the bed and it heats up just fine. I narrowed the issue down to the print head. I tried snipping the wires that power it and soldering them together to skip the notorious clip connectors.

No joy.

I did more research and tried checking the thermistor. I couldn't rule out that I might have damaged it when I was briskly cleaning the print head with my wire brush. I wasn't sure, but I suspected after looking it over that I might have pulled one or both of the thermistor wires. I ordered an E3D v6 print head and replaced the old print head and thermistor in one go. After a lot of careful checking, I tried tonight to use my printer.

No luck.

Still the dreaded heater decoupled message.

Maybe there are still more things I could be doing, but I think I have done everything I could find or think of at this point. I have a hunch that there must be a gremlin lurking in the Repetier software, but I had flashed my printer and replaced it at least twice now.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm guessing that the error is pointing to the print head, but beyond that I have run out of ideas on why it is acting the way it is?
