Navigate to Tools > Maintenance on the touchscreen and run the heater diagnostic
2
Measure heater cartridge resistance with a multimeter (should be approximately 10-15 ohms for 24V/40W units)
3
Check the heater cable connection at the extruder board and the mainboard
4
Monitor the temperature readout on the touchscreen to determine if it rises at all or stays flat
5
Replace the heater cartridge if resistance is out of specification
Pro Tip
This fix requires some technical knowledge. If you're unsure about any step, consider contacting support or a qualified technician.
