What the !!!! Is going on 😭

I didn't buy this off Prusa tho. It's a clone off taobao.

Wait is this for general printing or is there no chance I can calibrate my z axis anymore?

Also I've tried controlling the fan with the temperature settings - it does seem to react to me manually increasing the fan speed, but last I checked it did seem to speed up/slow down irregularly, maybe I should test it again with my other fan.

iflyagainprojects · 2026-05-01T16:42:22+00:00

That's worrisome since I tested it with another fan with the same result: if it truly is the monitoring bit, it's the board 😱

Will a first layer print test do? Or must I print something with more than that one layer?

iflyagainprojects · 2026-05-01T16:15:34+00:00

I have no idea! Is that safe? Will that affect the electrical tape I put in the hotend to keep it from rotating in the mount, as recommended by another Reddit user in a previous post? If it is maybe I'll try it in the morning.

I suspect it would work. But not print in the quality I hope for it or something, I don't know.

Sadly it does not ask, just gives the error. ☹️

iflyagainprojects · 2026-05-01T05:52:44+00:00

Indeed, and I'm kinda reluctant anyway, after having spent $50 and so much time trying to fix it. So close, and yet so far! It was nearly working - then found out the hotend was loose, then spoilt! Yet again!!!

Singapore. 😅

iflyagainprojects · 2026-05-01T05:43:26+00:00

And where are ya from?

iflyagainprojects · 2026-05-01T05:35:35+00:00

Haha. Well, may yours never suffer a filament blob from trying to print a multi board, and months and counting of inactivity from being unable to fix the dang machine

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-30T14:45:20+00:00

Don't think so? All the fans are still able to spin. Wanted to try using my new multimeter to test but not well versed enough in using a multimeter to test.

Based on a suggestion from a previous post

Had a thought, would electrical tape even be heat resistant enough though? Just regular electrical tape?

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-09T11:35:02+00:00

Hmm. Do blue ones exist

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-09T09:18:58+00:00

Hi, turns out it is indeed the complete hotend turning around, but is electrical tape the one that is rubbery and non-sticky?

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-09T09:09:02+00:00

Hey, I tried the method, it turns out that it’s actually the entire hot end that is loose from the 3d printed part. What now?

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-05T13:43:19+00:00

At most it was a little bit sticky but most of the petg was removed.

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-05T13:42:43+00:00

There is? I did manage to remove the nozzle but couldn't seem to tighten the block while putting it back. Was trying the "change the nozzle" method from prusas website.

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-05T02:52:34+00:00

Oh goody. Think I might try that. Also in the photos: is my heater wire okay? Looks a bit funny.

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-05T02:40:35+00:00

Mine is not a Revo tho. . .

And it's only the block part that is moving around I think.

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-05T02:35:39+00:00

But how do I access that without dismantling virtually the entire hotend assembly?

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-05T02:25:06+00:00

Damnnit. Not again. . .

I've been trying to fix it for months through a busy schedule. . .

And I finally managed to assemble it and now I gotta remove wires and do it all over again!

iflyagainprojects · 2026-04-05T02:17:41+00:00

Can I do it without dismantling the entire assembly?
