Re: Thermistor cartridge DOA

Hi, you had better luck than me...
I contacted support, got a "Hi" and nothing more...
so I eventually dropped the chat and tried again...

got another hi from the same operator... and asked to wait as they were very busy.

I waited... Hours... nobody came back...

dumped the call and tried again, got an appology, then asked to take a video, to show the thermistor was not working...

bearing in mind that I had fitted the Mk1 Thermistor, temporarily wrapping it round the cable bundle, there was little chance of taking a video...

so I ended up emailing them and hoping for a reply...

however, just in case, I have ordered some replacements

Got an email yesterday saying that they will send me a replacement.

Apparently nothing wrong on their side and each component is tested before shipping ..

I beleive we need to be cautions when assembling the printer before de wire are tie together

I also took 2 spares from E3D yesterday with 2 extra nozzle ..
