I had the same error on my SD2. That drove me to replace the entire hot end/Thermistor with an E3D. No issues after that.

Thanks

Once I assigned it a more substantial print (45 minutes), I encountered a problem. 2/3s of the way in it stopped for this error:

Printer Stopped Due To Errors. Fix The Errors And Use M999 To Restart (Temperature Is Reset. Reset After Restarting)

I've heard this is a heat related problem due to faulty or broken parts, but I am not having any problems heating or cooling my Solidoodle. The extruder and bed reach optimal heat in about 2 or 3 minutes, and cool down within 7 or 8. I can increase or decrease heat as I like, but I cannot move the extruder head or authorize a print. I can also not retract or extrude filament. Is this a problem with my software, or do I need to repair or replace part of my machine? Any help is greatly appreciated.

PS : (This is my first 3d printer, and I'm very new and not very good at it. Please bear with me.)

Update: After a hard restart, it works again, but still, could this be a sign of damage?
