Random crash detection triggers
Hi,
I just assembled my I3 MK3 kit and everything seems to be working fine during calibration. I decided to run the 3D benchy on the SD card as a first print. However, the print keeps failing when it starts doing the first layers of infill. I have tried this several times now, and it is due to crash detection triggering. It triggers and then keeps on triggering repeatably over and over.
I don't think it is actually crashing into something, as the first layers looks fine... Has anyone had similar experience and how did you fix it?
Thanks!

Go into the settings menu and disable crash detection, then try Benchy again. What version of firmware are you running?

Yes, I'm running a test right now and it has made it past the previous point. However, I want to be able to have crash detection in the future. I downloaded 3.1.3 hex file and loaded that onto the printer.
Re: Random crash detection triggers
Interesting. Crash detection has been flaky all along. I was hoping they had it sorted by 3.1.3 but it seems not. If your print works fine all you can do is leave it disabled until they get it working consistently on all printers.
Re: Random crash detection triggers
I'm having the same issue on my first print, which is a benchy. It keeps saying crash detected, but seems to continue normally.
Re: Random crash detection triggers
I had this crash-detection also on my frist benchy print. Then faced this crashdetections meanwhile also on other prints.
During my last prints, I realized, that is caused by the windings of the spool, which overlapped at the spool and made it hard to unwind for the extruder. This was the force, which detects then the "crash".
Take care during the print, the filament can be unrolled flawlessly and check the print again 🙂 Hope this helps

Where do you guys get the 'false' crash detection? X or Y Axis? (you can look it up in the Support Menu)

For me it is always Y axis. I would suggest people check to make sure they have not overtightened the u-bolts on the Y axis. The instructions can be interpreted in such a way that you actually overtighten these. You actually barely tighten them, just enough to secure the bearing, and in my case this helped with the crash detection. I am now able to print benchy. Quality is crap,but hey, what do you expect for $1000...

llllooooollllll just make the quality more and more fine.
lol

just google how to make the printer quality better lol

the same thing happened to me
