Broken Wire
I have a MK3S
First there was a "Thermal Runaway"
Now I have a "Preheat Error"
Both of which I assume are related to the broken wire in the photo.
What does this wire do and how do I fix it?
Thanks,
Ken

RE:
Heating cartridge and thermistor are very sensitive parts. Switch off the printer before carrying out installation work on the hotend to avoid short circuits.

So just order this:

Have not seen any instructions for installation.
Anybody have any helpful hints?

RE:
Is it really as simple as loosening the screw and swapping out the part? Or are there gotchas?
