Heater 1 not working: Error: Heating fault on heater 1

Error: Heating fault on heater 1, temperature rising much more slowly than the expected 1.8°C/sec
Not sure what I've done this was working a while ago but I was running into issues with setting up my BL Touch and end stops that I think I may have inadvertently changed something. I have checked the wiring to make sure there are no breaks in the line and it all seemed good. I did try putting a meter on the leads of the duet wifi for the heater cartridge then activated it and I never received any type of reading. So im assuming something has happened in the programming that is not even activating it.

If anyone can see anything obvious in my config.g file I would appreciate the input.

I had the same error the other day, if i remember correctly my thermistor was configured wrong.
It also happened when after rewiring one of the wires for the heater was not making a good contact.

I see that you have M305 P0 T100000 B4725 C7.060000e-8 R4700 are the hotend and heatbed have the same tyope of thermistor?

Tried your settings, unfortunately didnt work Thank you though. Much appreciated

I don't see any M307 H1 command in your config,g file. So you should run heater tuning on the hot end and save the results in a M307 H1 command in config.g. See https://duet3d.com/wiki/Tuning_the_heater_temperature_control.

Ok I ran the M307. This is what I got:
M307 H1
Heater 1 model: gain 340.0, time constant 140.0, dead time 5.5, max PWM 1.00, calibration voltage 0.0, mode PID, inverted no, frequency default
Computed PID parameters for setpoint change: P13.4, I0.482, D51.4
Computed PID parameters for load change: P13.
This is what I put in my config.g file:
; Heaters
M305 P0 T100000 B4725 C0 R4700 ; Set thermistor + ADC parameters for heater 0
M143 H0 S120 ; Set temperature limit for heater 0 to 120C

M143 H1 S280 ; Set temperature limit for heater 1 to 280C
M307 H1 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 B0
It didnt change anything though.

Do you always get this error when you try to heat the extruder? If so then it sounds like the heater isn't coming on at all. Try this

1. Restart the Duet, to clear any existing heater fault.

2. Command the heater on and immediately watch the E0 LED on the Duet. This is he red LED immediately to the left of the blue VIN LED. It should light up for a few seconds when you command heating, then go off again when the heater fault is reported.

I dont see it coming on at all

it was working last week but sometime while I was trying to get either my endstops working or my BL touch working it to then stopped.

Hi,

I haved similar issue… I was using a heat cartridge of 12v... And the temperature rises slow

Hi, this one is definitely for 24v. It was working at one point. I don't know if something has happened to the board or if its programmed incorrectly (my screw up) but the E0 light never comes on.I have even tried to meter it to see if it shows a reading and nothing.

Thanks. I suspect that your Duet has developed a fault in the heater 1 drive circuit. Please do the following:

1. Check the extruder heater wiring carefully to make sure it doesn't have a short to anything.

2. If you have a multimeter, measure the resistance of the heater cartridge. See step 9 at https://e3d-online.dozuki.com/Guide/V6+Assembly/6?lang=en. Also use your multimeter to check that there is no continuity between the heater wires and the hot end metalwork.

3. If those tests are all OK, try using the E1 heater output instead. You will need to make the following changes to config.g:

Change M307 H1 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 B0 to M307 H2 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 B0
Change M305 P1 T100000 B4725 C7.060000e-8 R4700 to M305 P1 P2 T100000 B4725 C7.060000e-8 R4700
Change M563 P0 D0 H1 to M563 P0 D0 H2

4. If that works, and your Duet is under warranty, submit a warranty claim.

2. If you have a multimeter, measure the resistance of the heater cartridge. See step 9 at https://e3d-online.dozuki.com/Guide/V6+Assembly/6?lang=en. Also use your multimeter to check that there is no continuity between the heater wires and the hot end metalwork.The resistance of the heater cartridge was 14.2, I checked it at the cartridge and at every place that a connection was made along the wire all the way back to the duet its self. It stayed the same. I also checked for continuity between the wires and the metal parts, there was none.

3. If those tests are all OK, try using the E1 heater output instead. You will need to make the following changes to config.g:I did your changes, as soon as I connect the duet HEATER 2 says 2000 degrees

Change M307 H1 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 B0 to M307 H2 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 B0

Change M305 P1 T100000 B4725 C7.060000e-8 R4700 to M305 P1 T100000 B4725 C7.060000e-8 R4700

I made a mistake, in the M305 command you need to change P1 to P2. Also, you need to move the thermistor from the E0 to the E1 thermistor input, or else add X1 to that M305 P2 command.

Hi I did the changes and switched the plug from E0 to E1 but im still getting a fault "Error: Heating fault on heater 2, temperature rising much more slowly than the expected 1.8°C/sec"

Here is my config file, just want to make sure I did the changes you requested correctly.
