min temp error.  

RE: min temp error.

you sure its plugged in correctly?  it's semi scary to tell someone how to cheat it.

RE: min temp error.

yes, its plugged in properly. the sensor works but stops reading when the y-axis gets near the rear of the printer. I already ordered 2 new sensors but they wont be here for a while. i have no plans to use the heated bed until i get the new sensor. 

Thanks for your help

RE: min temp error.

maybe you can fix the wire..

or... I wouldn't do this but you might be able to take the sensor off the bed and put it someplace good.  but remember to turn off the bed heater.. its not worth the risk

RE: min temp error.

I would also recommend replacing the sensor cable as the easier and safer solution. Clearly it is broken somewhere and as it is bent during the movement, the circuit opens.

[Yes it is possible to patch out the min temp in the firmware. Get the sources from GIT, find the place, recompile, flash. Not hard if you know how. Not safe if you don't.]

RE: min temp error.

at least that temp sensor isn't as bad as say the nozzle. I would 100% feel safe soldering that sensor.  but if you do make SURE the bed it turned off, just incase.

RE: min temp error.

I already tried removing the sensor and taping it somewhere it works. It randomly fails stops printing and produces the same error. I have also disconnected the heated bed from the main board so i dont have an accident.

RE: min temp error.

You can always plug a 100kΩ resistor in place of the thermistor and your printer will "measure" room temperature at all times.

I already tried removing the sensor and taping it somewhere it works. It randomly fails stops printing and produces the same error. Ive downloaded the firmware from git hub and i just need to know what to edit. I unplugged the heated bed from the main board so i cant turn it one by mistake 

RE: min temp error.

i dont have an 100kΩ resistor 🙁

RE: min temp error.

Ah! And there I assumed that everyone has a stash of 100kΩ resistors in their home. Foolish me!

I suppose you have the whole thermistor assembly including the cable out of the heatbed and the textile sleeving by now. What I'd do is to watch the screen while twisting and stretching the cable to find the spot where it is broken. Ideally while the thermistor itself is at least warm so that you can see the difference. [A brute way of doing it is just pulling on the ends of the cable until it tears. It will tear at the spot where it is broken. ] Then fix it, ideally with a soldering iron and a shrink wrap, in case of the need of an urgent fix by twisting and tape.

RE: min temp error.

I will try to fix it, ill keep you updated

RE: min temp error.

i think i found the broken spot in the cable. i forgot to mark which cable went to which side. dos that matter?

RE: min temp error.

As an aside, did you contact live chat and tell them? They'll send you a replacement for free. You shouldn't be out of pocket on a DOA part. 

RE: min temp error.

I pre-ordered the machine the day it was announced. but it took me along time to get it assembled due to family problems. the wont help me because its out of warrenty

No, it doesn't.

RE: min temp error.

i tried to fix the cable 3 times but failed. 🙁 now the only option is to disable min temp in firmware

Thanks for your help

RE: min temp error.

I really appreciate your help!

What file do I put that code into? Where in the document do I put the code?

I'm assuming it's in the document that has the thermal settings in it.

RE: min temp error.

It's a patch file. You normally apply it using 

# patch -p1 < patch_file.patch

where patch_file.patch would be the code snipped that I posted. You can also apply it manually by editing the file specified in the header (Firmware/variants/1_75mm_MK3-EINSy10a-E3Dv6full.h), removing the line prefixed with '-' and adding the line prefixed with '+'.

And then, of course, recompiling the firmware.

Keep in mind that the MINTEMP code is there to prevent the printer catching on fire in case of a broken thermistor cable.
