Heatbed not heating

Hi everybody,
I've just bought a heatbed for my Prusa i3 hephestos. I've installed the software for the heatbed and I've plugged the thermistor (I can see the correct temperature on the right of the extruder temp). My problem is that when I set a temperature for my heatbed, it doesn't heat. I've tested the D8 exit with a multimeter but there's not current flowing there. I am sure that the headbed works because I've tested it with an external electrical source.

Thanks in advance,
Lorenzo.

P.S.
The firmware that I've installed is this https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1554343

Re: Heatbed not heating

Hi Lorenzo,

this site is for the Original Prusa i3

which uses a Rambo controller,

You might get better support on the manufacturers website for your Hephestos.
