I was surprised at how warm the connector got while the extruder was heating up.

Time to make some modifications like everyone else or return it and get something better since I am still within the return period at the store.

No errors no nothing.

After cancelling the print, I checked the temps and the extruder was cold. Great, looks like it gave up the ghost just to have me waste a whole bunch of filament on an unfinished job.

Not too keen on this whole experience with XYZ and the DaVinci. :-(

Time to search the forums for extruder replacement or if I can still return it to Micro Center, take it back for a replacement.
