    Please confirm which Duet you are using. If it's a Maestro then it has 4 thermistor connectors in total, so please make sure you have selected the right one.

      I tried the one right next to the one that was working for E0 and the third one that is close, diagonally from E0 that worked. I have a Maestro.

        It's the one labelled E1 Temp, next to E0 temp that you were using before. the third one in that area is labelled C Temp.

        You can use the E0 Temp connector instead if you add parameter X1 to your M305 P2 command.

        BTW that M305 P2 command is probably wrong because the B4725 parameter is normally used with a C parameter too, to model the hot end thermistors shipped by E3D.

          After connecting the thermistor to E0 again, I added X1 to M305 P2 and it now has a reading of room temperature. However when I go to heat it up it will not heat and I get the heating too slowly error. I did change B4725 to B4138 like I had before.

              Are you saying that it's not heating up at all? Does the red LED next to the E1 Heat output light up when you select tool 0 and command it to heat up?

              Given that you couldn't make it work on E0 output either, it sounds to me that either the heater cartridge or the wiring is faulty.

                I'm on my second heater cartridge. The first one was a new 24V one from E3D and the second one is a Trianglelab one. There is not much print time on either and the first one from E3d went bad.

                I noticed that the wire connectors on my thermistor plug to the board was loose. I pressed the connectors in tight but I did not rewire the plug like I should have. I will do that later. It started working again but now it won't go over 211 degrees celsius. I have my print set for 225 and it is stuck at 210 or 211 and it has not timed out with an error surprisingly. I did not change the heater timeout either. It finally did give an heater fault error after a few minutes of not getting up to temp.

                I did not check the led but I will the next time. I would like to get the heater remapped to E1 port on the board if possible to eliminate that the E0 port is bad. I don't understand why I had one cartridge go bad and then another if the second cartridge is bad.

                  It seems to have a problem at higher temps but only while printing. I just cranked it up to 235 and it held firm there while the printer was idle for a few minutes. Maybe the vibrations are affecting my weak thermistor connection to the board.

                    I found the problem. It is because of my fan being on! I only have a single fan on the hotend, and the hotend has a sock on it! I turn the fan off and the temp shoots right up. I know that I should have known better but on my 7 other, home built, printers I never had this problem, especially when using a single fan for cooling and a heat block sock. The only difference with this machine is that it's 24 volt, including the cooling fan, versus 12 volt on the other printers that I built.

                      Did you run your PID tune with the fan on? That can help.

                        @Phaedrux Yes I did run a PID Autotune with the fan on. Thank you for the suggestion.

                        I found that I can only run my fan at around 75% to hold higher temps, which is still amazing to me because it's only a single fan with one of those 3/4 circle duct vents. I put tape on the main part of the vent where the main air flow comes from so that it circulates around more before it is release near the hotend. I still cannot believe this fan can make that much of a difference even with a sock on the hotend.

                          I've been working with Marlin and Klipper the last few years and The Duet on a 24 volt machine has me learning new things!
