Looks like you have the thermistor for the heated bed mis-configured in firmware so that the firmware thinks the thermistor is reading a temperature above the max temperature point. It kills everything to prevent over-heating and damaging your machine.

Thanks New Perfection, emaker from the irc chat helped me identified a short circuit on my bed temp. I got 2000 0.01 ohms. How can I solve this?
