Hi,
I have been successfully using the K8400 printer after building it myself and printing ton’s of stuff.
I put it aside for a while because of other focus and wanted to use it again after a while.
Sadly enough I did not remove the filaments so the nozzles were clogged.
Not that much a problem because I had spares to replace.
Now comes the problem. After successfully replacing the nozzles and also soldering a thermistor on extruder 1 ( they come loose easily from the cable ), the printer went to home location after selecting home in the menu.
Almost home, the printer seemed to crash and the display showed nothing. Pressing the reset button gives no response. Printer does not reset.
I used the printer standalone with SDcards so I checked to see if I could reach the printer with Arduino an tried to upload new firmware. This worked but still no display or reset response. So I cannot select save to EEPROM either. Thinking that the firmware still would be ok, I connected the printer to Repetier Server Host to check the logging there.
This is what I get :

I do not know what to do.
Is the display broken ? Did I short something out on the Thermistor ? ( is that possible shorting it on the heater block ? ).
Is the mainboard broken but not the display.
I am happy to replace stuff but I do not know where to start now.
Help.
