Hotend not "hotting" - Githubissues

eric123v commented 3 years ago

I must have updated this firmware 25 times - I am confident that I have spent over 40 hours just tinkering and going through different settings on the configuration files - nothing I do gets this to work.

I can't get the hotend to heat (I also can't get my homers to home, but one step at a time!).*

Can anyone look at this config file and tell me if I have buggered something up in it? I've tried on my own, failed, rinsed, and repeated...ad nauseum - I am at my wits end and if I had hair, I'd be pulling most of it out. Here is my setup:

Ender 5 Base model (not plus)
Marlin 2.0 Firmware
BTT SKR V1.3 set up in UART Mode with 2208 Drivers
TFT 24 v1.1 using older firmware
Firmware using Ender 5 Config.H and adv.h examples from BTT (modified stepper type (TMC2208) and direction for X/Y, display (...Full discount...)
Upgraded to Meanwell PSU

All endstops and hotend was working with stock board and display. I was really trying to use the stealthchop drivers to quiet the printer down so I could use it in my office while WFH. I have a Creality brand BL Touch, but it is not yet configured or plugged in until I get these other issues working.

If anyone can help - specifically with the hotend, but also with the endstops, I'd be incredibly grateful!! Thanks - E

Have you tried to measure the current which is provided at the hotend while heating up?

Hey @oldman4U ...thank you for getting back to me. My problem was a really stupid one on my part. Wiring issue into board. Got it working and now working through trying to adjust the steps.
