Likely Causes
  1. Bed heater element has developed a high-resistance connection or open circuit
  2. Power connector for the bed heater on the mainboard is burned or loose
  3. Bed heater PCB trace has cracked from thermal cycling
  4. Insufficient PSU power to heat both bed and extruder simultaneously
How to Fix It
1
Monitor the bed temperature on the touchscreen to see if it rises slowly or not at all
2
Measure bed heater resistance with a multimeter (typically 1-3 ohms for 24V systems)
3
Inspect the bed heater power connector on the mainboard for signs of burning, melting, or discoloration
4
Verify the PSU output voltage under load (should be a stable 24V)
5
If the connector shows burn marks, replace the connector and possibly the mainboard
Pro Tip
This fix requires some technical knowledge. If you're unsure about any step, consider contacting support or a qualified technician.
