Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

thanks it was a loose wire at the top of my printer, I guess when I tried to make the wires longer i didnt tighten up the clamps. So just in case that doesn't happen again I just solder the wires together. Thanks for the help

Does the LED on the RAMBO light up when you set the hotend temperature? if it does, you need to unplug the hotend from the board, and measure the resistance across the heater connections. It should be ~3 Ohms, odds are it'll read close to infinity, and you have a wiring issue, broken wire or open ...

What's up all, I have been printing fine on my Rostock Max v2 for that last few months but today I tried to print something the hot end temperature won't go past 23 degrees Celsius. I have checked the wiring and checked my rambo fuses. Replaced the fuses and checked the hot end wires as well. (This ...

I am having a little configuration problems regarding my Rostock Max v2 printer. I have been configuring it for the past month now and I am still having a little trouble. I am in the process of printing the peek fan to install on it, however the prints never come out correctly. It will start off ...

ok thanks I will check that out.

I tighten those thanks for the help. Now im having an issue with fuse continuing to blow. This didn't happen until i installed the peek fan. have you heard of this happening before

What's up everyone. I finally got my rostock max v2 up and printing. I had a little trouble at first with printing molding, and over extrusion. However i believed I fixed that issue. However another issue occurred. Now my prints once it gets to about the 8th or 9th layer. The printer will miss the ...

I was wondering if anyone has ever had the problem before with the LCD and Mattercontrol not showing the display temperature

Read the post directly above this one for why one thing works but the other does not. Motors and display are fused separately.[/quote] ok thanks for the information. I am wondering before I change the f2 fuse again, just for future references; how can I better prevent the f2 fuse to not blow.[/quote ...

Nothing is really standing out on the pictures. Cant really see the end stops on the RAMBo because the ribbon cable, Just make sure the white wire is on the left with black in the middle. It almost looks like they are backwards. ok yeah the white wire is first and the black is in the middle. At the ...

Can you please take a picture of the RAMBo and the endstops? Also when you said the M119 command shows L, was that with or without you holding each switch closed with your finger? Just trying to get an idea if the switches are wired for NC or NO. (Also make sure each cheap-skate is pulled away from ...

Also since you haven't printed anything, check the dangling wires for the layer fan. Make sure those are not touching each-other or anything for that matter.

the images are in the attached docement

ok ill check the fuse again. would it be the fuse even though the rambo turn on and displays everything Read the post directly above this one for why one thing works but the other does not.

Check your fuses again. You may have blown one again. Which sounds bad but actually is a good thing. Because it is either the fuse or an expensive component that will probably be very difficult to solder. If it has blown you have a short somewhere. ok ill check the fuse again. would it be the fuse ...

actually the fan in the back of the rambo is not working either now that i think about it

ok so i had bad fuses on my board so i replaced them however i still can not get the arms to move

Support is just trying to establish if the fuse is dead without you having a meter. If F2 is dead, and you swap it with F3, then the board will be dead, since F3 is the fuse for the heater and the logic if I remember correctly. Yes they are replaceable parts, part numbers are posted in several ...

It's possible fuse F2 is dead on the Rambo board, you can check it with a meter. It would cut all power to the motors. ok that makes sense but im just curious why seemecnc support would tell me to swap the f2 and f3 fuses. before i swapped them the board worked fine, i could get the heating bed and ...

Are you certain you've managed to connect in matter control? It is unlikely all the motors are bad. Have you tried homing from the LCD screen? yes i am certain it was connected to the matter control because i was able to turn on the heated bed and hotend from mattercontrol. I tried to home the ...

Right, you shouldn't have to manually enable the steppers. If it's ignoring a move command you may have a wiring issue with the motors. I've never done it so I'm not sure if the symptom would be the same if you have the endstops wired with reversed logic. is it a way to fix the wires in the stepper ...

AFAIK "Steppers Disabled" is not an error message. It is just information. After certain events the firmware will shut off the steppers. When the steppers are disabled, you can move the cheapskates by hand. There is no "enable steppers" action in the Repetier menu. No action is required to re ...

this is a newly built printer. It is a Max. I have been trying to just configure the machine so i can make the first print
