I am using Repetier firmware version 0.91 with my teensylu board. I cannot control both of my heaters.

They work fine with marlin firmware.

I have been playing with pins.h and fastio.h but i don't really know much so i need help.

Go to [www.repetier.com]
select board and enable heater checkbox in temperatures. The pins are preset to correct values. Only select thermistor type etc.

I did as you told. My pin config was correct as well.

Now I noticed that repetier host returns:
T:20.42 B:22.92 B@:0 @:0

firmaware is set to pid however eeprom is set to bang bang

EEPROM is what counts. But bang-bang is also ok. What I see is temperature reading is ok and you do not try to heat the bed. In the host you can also see bed output and as long as it is 0 you have the bed not enabled to heat.

The blue line says: Heating Bed and the status bar on the bottom says 23/100. It still reports 0 as power and the bed does not respond.

UPDATE:

I just connected a windows pc instead of a mac and it works. I have been using this mac with repetier host for around 8 months and never had this problem.

Ok, so you have perhaps enabled dry mode in the host? That would explain the temps not going up.
