Topic: echo: active extuder : 0

hi i have a problem

i started a print as always,  a 8h print , i ramped up the feed rate at 130 to speed thing up,  (new titan extruder with e3d v6 combo)
nothing unusual printed started up

i did go out on my merry way

4 hours later i return, the printed had stop, and did get to park position.

i was kinda busy, and did not put attention. powered the all thing off and went to bed (was kinda late)

today, i try again same print.

but i have this weerd message

13:25:16.865 : echo:Active Extruder: 0

the temp reading on repetier is 0° normaly it's 20-23°
homing work fine Z X and Y axes are fine.

and I can't look at the extruder  cause i get a fatal error if i try.

so how can i test if it 

1 the Extruder stepper that died ?
2 the motherboard that have a problem ?
3 the tesmistor ?
4 the heatblock at the motherboard level ?

thanks you.

I try to swap the Z stepper to the Extruder stepper and I get the same thing.

That's a thermistor problem.  Double check the connections and wires.

Re: echo: active extuder : 0

thanks

I did test by switching bed temp with extruder temp and iI do get a reading.
then i tryied a new termistor for a hexagone hotend not suited for the e3dv6 but it did work so
next will be to buy a new  E3D v6 termistor...
