Heater 1 reading 160 C when off

[Phaedrux]

That would be strange. Leaving the R value off should use the default for your board.

Can you confirm your firmware version with M115?

If you send M98 P"config.g" do you get any errors?

Can you send M308 S1 in the console and tell us what it reports?

Where are you seeing the 160c reading?

What do you mean by "off", was it previously heated?

I did have the R value on then took it off to test that theory no change.

What I mean by off is I turn by printer on after hours if not days of it not running and it'll start of at 160.
I've changed the B value up to 1000000, and that dropped it down to 29C.

Could the board connection be bad? How could do I switch it to use E0, the other heater?

Connect your thermistor to the other temp port. ie e0temp

Change your M308 to use that new pin

M308 S1 P"e0temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4725 C7.060000e-8

Does your wiring run next to anything that might be generating interference?

A good test may be to remove the thermistor from the hotend and reconnect it to the board with a new, shorter piece of wire.

@phaedrux
I've used an different thermistor and connected it directly to the board and I'm getting the same result.
I switched to the other port and same number

@beej please run M308 H1 and report the response.

When you said "What I mean by off is I turn by printer on after hours if not days of it not running and it'll start of at 160" do you mean that after a while the temperature reading drops to the correct value?

@dc42 the moment I power up the duet it shows 159/158 and stays at that reading

[beej]

I've dropped the T value to 1000 and that puts it around 23C.
But when I set the heat to 200 and turn the heater on the measured values drops. Same if T is 100000. The measure value starts dropping.
Did I somehow screwup the board when I replaced a pin, 1) VIN on E3 was shorted?

It sounds to me that your "thermistor" may actually be a PT1000.

@dc42
lol, Yea that was the problem.
I don't remember buying a different sensor and all my backups have a thermistor setup. Must not have saved a backup before.
