Topic: wits end

I have a SD3 a Printrboars rev E, it was doing fine until a few days ago. I am getting all kinds of errors.Like when I am just heating the ext and bed and try to move the platform down a bit,  I get an error ,printer stopped due to errors but it does not say what error just use M999 to reset and then at other times it  starts to print and errors again. What's really odd is the reported temps  both say 0.00 I have to restart RH to get them back to normal.
My question is, can the firmware get corrupted and cause these issues?

SD3, E3D hotend,linear bearing on x/y axis',pillow block bearing on y conneting rod, ball bearngs on front y axis, fan on y stepper motor.
