Printer/firmware (Marlin) restarting randomly and frequently
Posted: Fri Mar 19, 2021 12:51 am
I have always had this issue, and sometimes it goes away. I have successfully performed a few overnight prints, so I can't understand what's going on here. But today, this is worse than usual.
It was fine when I first booted it up, I leveled the bed manually because it was complaining about "probe failed" when I tried to auto-level. I just wanted to get going with a print, figured I'd troubleshoot that other issue later.
I went to Cura to slice my STL file, and kept hearing a ticking sound from my 3D touch sensor - I look over and I keep seeing the Marlin splash screen on the LCD display. Then it boots to the main screen.... a few seconds later, the Marlin splash screen again. Looks like it keeps restarting.
And that doesn't stop if I go into the menu, try to get to auto home or bed leveling - before I even get there, it reboots on me again. Marlin splash screen.
Is this a bad main board in here or something? Or is there something else I can check to rectify this? I do need to fix this or this printer is useless to me, and I've only printed maybe 4 things... help!
