Homebuilt printer running 5 yrs now Repetier firmware with no problems.
Ramps 1.4 on Mega 2560
I would now like to try Marlin, so I uploaded Marlin Bugfix 2.xx ON A SPARE Mega 2560, upload with no problems using Visual Studio Code.
Both hotend and heatbed report exactly the same ambient temperature. 18C (Thermister OK)
After setting temperatures, the bed does not heat up. (Extruder no problem)
(It then times out and "Heating failed- Printer halted"
I then uploaded my backup copy of Repetier to this Mega, and then all works well again with no problems. Proof that it is not an electrical wiring or a physical problem.
I have gone over the Congfig file many times now, and have tried "example" configs, (Those using Ramps 1.4 and Mega,) No luck.
Is it perhaps a PIN assignment problem?
Any pointers, please anyone.
My Config attached.
Thanks guys
