New a30 hotend not working

Post by mfann72 » Thu Dec 26, 2019 11:01 am

I just set the printer up today, and the hotend worked for about 5 minutes then started cooling down. Now it will not heat up. Any ideas?

:D Hi, Are you referring to the temperature display on the screen?
Or the hot end itself?

You can check whether the hot-end connection is fully connected;

Use a multimeter to measure the thermistor at the hot end;

If you do n’t have a multimeter, you can unplug the hot end cable from the motherboard.
Check the screen temperature display. If it shows -14, it is determined that the motherboard is normal.

I hope this can help you.
