Okay, so here are some images to make things clearer.
This shows how the target temp in pronterface spikes up and then goes right down.
The bedtemp is sensing properly, it changes when i put my finger on it or take it away
The bed end terminals. the wires that (are supposed to) carry the heat are the copper ones in the blue terminal, the 2 black wires are for the thermistor, and the yellow/white wire is ground
All the connections that deal with the bed; main power, bed power, bed temp, and ground
better picture of the ground, before i soldered it
I didn't have access to any crimpers or crimp housings, so i soldered the pins. i took care to leave them isolated of each other. there is no overlap of solder and in the near future i plan to protect them with hst
I hope this is enough information. If you need more just ask. Thanks.
