That would be also my expectation.
The moving wires are the heatbed, but this runs over a SSR and I do not think a short circuit would cause this behaviour over the SSR.
I removed also the bed Thermistor (but did not heat then the bed) and still the issue.
So could be the wires running from top to the printhead carrier. I renewed already the connector to the IR probe, as this looked a bit suspicious.
As it looks as I'm the only one having this issue, it mustbe something with my build ?.
I will be next week on vacation and afterwards I replace the Duet 0.8.5 by the Duet Wifi. Lets see if this changes anything in this behaviour.
It is a pitty that the error occours only from time to time, making trouble shooting much harder.
I will report how it goes.
