Did I just destroy my hotend thermistor?
My was replacing my heatbreak from the Bondtech back to the original and I was being stupid and tightened the set screw instead of loosening it. Did I just destroy my thermistor?
MINI+ with FW:4.3.3, Bondtech IFS Extruder, drilled out PC4-M8 couplers, 1 piece Capricorn bowden.
Probably not (as seen on photo). Just put it back in and observe temperature on display.

RE: Agree
I agree with BogdanH. Hook it back up and see if your sill register room temperature. If it registers 0 then replace it.

It registers
Well that's a relief, it still works. Hotend registers at 18C and the room is at 65F.

RE: Thermistors
As long as you are careful with the wires, you will likely not kill a thermistor. The most common cause it trying to remove it form the heatblock and the wires will become for fragile with time and heat.
