I though waiting for the printer was bad...
Having one sitting idle on my desk is worse...

Yeah I guess I will do that, this time it happened mid print, I appreciate the fact that there is a check before trying to extrude through a cool extruder...

I guess I will get a new one on the way...

Thanks for the help.

It saves a lot of damage.

There is voltage at the heater core, so I'm guessing the heater is just done...
After a 9 minutes print sad

When I turned it back up to 200, it kept going down, and now it just won't go up.

Where do I start ?
I tried resetting the printer and just unplugging it, letting it cool and starting again, same result.

First print was fantastic, I just want to keep going !

Thanks for the help
