<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — Just installed new E3D now no extruder or bed heat.]]> https://www.soliforum.com/topic/7618/just-installed-new-e3d-now-no-extruder-or-bed-heat/ Mon, 08 Sep 2014 10:38:28 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: Just installed new E3D now no extruder or bed heat.]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/65755/#p65755 Found a broken thermistor wire.  So I have replaced the E3D's thermistor with the original SD one.  Didn't have time to fully check it out, but both the extruder & the bed started to heat up when they were told to. 
I'll see if it runs tonight.

Off to order a new thermistor...

You're on the right track

temp readout -
Extruder: 0.00C/225C Bed: 26.40C/80C  No heat on either. 
Usually the extruder reads like the bed - ambient temp/desired temp.
I am sure the thermistor wires are covered to the bulb, and exposed nowhere else.  Connections from the MB to the extruder look OK.

At a loss here.  Thanx for any help.
