i3 hot end dropped temp mid-print

I was 5 hours into a print, and the hot end dropped to room temp. I turned it off for a while, and tried again, but it wouldn't heat up. All the wire connections are solid. Tried to print a few hours later, and it got through laying down a brim, and then stopped extruding. Being that this is a new printer that has been operating correctly for the past week, what are some possible causes/diagnostics?

Had an intermittent connection in the heating element; printing fine now.
