Okay, thanks David!

Simon solved it, he suggested that I remove deployprobe.g and stowprobe.g from the SD card.
It's working so beautifully!!

Thanks to all who replied!

Thanks again guys, both heaters do indeed check out as 24v 270W.

Pretty ambitious claustro! 😄

It has been suggested on the RepRap forum that I may have corrupted the EEPROM which certainly seems likely, that was the only thing which I had messed with before the trouble began.

The reply post simply said "… Run the 'clear eeprom' sketch in the arduino tools ... " , but I'm unable to find that in the Tools and it appears from Googling that it's not too tough to brick an Arduino if the method used to clear the EEPROM is incorrect.

Any tips on this?

Enough with the Arduino 8-bit stuff and Marlin, hard to wait until the machine running the Duet is finished.

Ah, thanks Simon – glad at least that I had it right the first time, thought there was something going on here which was beyond my grasp!

@DjDemonD:

Looks great is it expensive? I bought a chinese multimeter which is actually great quality and value a UNIT UT210E for about £30. It has a clamp ammeter, autoranging, and comes with a thermocouple. So great for this type of work.

Simon, I put the Amazon link above the photo, it's $30 US. Either way, sounds like a must have!

@T3P3Tony:

Nope its due to the fact its PTFE lined and thus more tolerant to insufficient heatsink cooling.

Ah, okay. Thanks Tony. Well now a day later I think that I can categorically say that it was a bad thermistor … smooth sailing (for now)!

Indeed there was! I'm sorry, I had skimmed the file looking for another but missed it – just a few sections below the first, I see

All fixed, thanks again for your help and attention David!

What a brilliant idea David! I picked up a T-REIGN large retractable gear tether yesterday, problem solved beautifully. I'm pleased that I can go ahead with the 0.9-deg steppers now, thank you.
