    I have an older version Duet Wifi:
    -Hdwr version 1.0.
    -Power Vin = 12vdc
    -Firmware v3.3
    After upgrading the firmware to 3.3, everything worked fine. However, I had a very slow "Bed Heater" and wanted to speed the heat cycle up by going to 24vdc (Bed Heater was always slow even before the firmware upgrade- thought now would be a good time to change that). Didn't see anything that said this wouldn't work as the Duet3d Wifi board appeared to be spec'd up to 24vdc input.

    I my system up to 24vdc and everything appeared to work, the bed heated up much quicker and was stable at just under 5amps. I shut the system down for the night. Today the unit came online but the DWC shows both temperature sensors are reading +2000 deg.

    I changed the power Vin - reverted back to 12vdc and the DWC shows a reading -273.1 deg. I check my thermistor readings and they are fine. I removed the two thermistors from the connector and the readings don't change... still -273.1deg. My 5v and 3.3v LEDs are on, NO fault light, and I can home my all three axies. I have included my M122 readings:

      @wurth51 said in Thermister problems: Duet Wifi Board v1.0:

      Supply voltage: min 0.6, current 1.7, max 1.8, under voltage events: 0, over voltage events: 0, power good: no

      what this M122 report sent with either the 12V or 24V power supply on?

      there is no particular reason that temperature measurements would work differently with 12V VIN rather than 24V Vin. Did you swap the heaters from 12V versions to 24V versions?

        @t3p3tony The M122 readings are with the 12v supply. I did not swap out the Nozzle heater, I did swap out the Bed Heater.

          @wurth51 thanks. Ok so there is an issue with the voltage monitoring (which uses the analog input, the same as the temperature monitoring) if you are getting 0V when the 12V power supply is on.

          Do you mind triple checking that you get ~0V with VIN set to 12V please

            @t3p3tony My mistake, I took those readings using the USB only. Here's the M122 dump with 12Vin:
            (Another NOTE: All three heater's read -273.1C even though I only have two of them hooked up. I activated the 3rd heater in the RRF config tool for troubleshooting as it is a known open circuit.)

              @wurth51 ok, well it's good that you have the VIN being detected.

              What happens with the reading in the third input if you test the thermistors there?

              What command are you using to set them up?

                  M308 S0 P"bedtemp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4092 ; configure sensor 0 as thermistor on pin bedtemp
                  ....
                  M308 S1 P"e0temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138 ; configure sensor 1 as thermistor on pin e0temp

                  Those look right. Please add the following line:

                  M308 S2 P"e1temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138 ; configure sensor 1 as thermistor on pin e0temp
                  

                  A new sensor should appear in the "extras" tab on DWC. Now try plugging each of the bed and e1 thermistors in there to see what readings you get.

                  Also try shorting (using a jumper) across the bedtemp and e0 temp inputs to see if the reading changes from -273 to 2000.

                    @t3p3tony said in Thermister problems: Duet Wifi Board v1.0:

                    M308 S2 P"e1temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138 ; configure sensor 1 as thermistor on pin e0temp

                    Ok.... that brought all three thermisters up on the interface. I shorted each one out and there was no change to the readings. Held constant at -273.1 deg. Looks like a component failure??? Is this repairable? Board is way out of warranty.

                      @wurth51 if they all read -273 then it sounds like the VSSA fuse has failed. https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Connector_and_spare_part_numbers#Section_VSSA_fuse

                        Thank you very much for responding to this post. It was in fact the fuse (took me awhile to find it). Did a quick bypass on the fuse and all the thermistors immediately started reading normal. I will with the article you provided to put a permanent solution in place.

                        Not sure how to mark this thread as "closed/solved"!

                          A big thanks to T3P3Tony for their assistance in getting me past the software being the problem and to dc42 for pointing me to the hardware solution.

                          It's a great day to be a Duet user.

                            @wurth51 worth considering how the VSSA fuse was blown. It is a PTC fuse that should reset itself after time when it triggers so if it failed it may have been exposed, or repeatedly exposed, to a high enough current to cause it to fail. Its there to protect the VSSA input on the temperature headers from a high voltage which is sometimes caused when the hotend (or bed) heater wiring shorts to a temperature wiring. Worth checking your wiring! from your first post It sounds like you might have an issue with using a 12V heater at 24V as well which is not recommended.

                              @t3p3tony he has a v1.0 board so the fuse isn't a PTC self-resetting one. Nevertheless, there must have been a short or transient of some sort to cause it to blow.

                                Got the little resettable fuse and 10k resistor installed. Board is now working fine.

                                The article you referred me to indicated that the firmware would respond to a "short" based on the installation of the 10k resistor. Can you elaborate on what I would expect to see should the fuse blow?

                                Thanks

                                  @wurth51 if you get a short between Vssa and a higher voltage then you should get a message on the DWC console warning you of the short.
