I have a problem
Hello I have a problem it says the extruder is at 150 but it's not even when cold
And when I try to heat it up, klipper disconnects and tells me to verify heater section in docs/config_reference.md

Oh and when I start to heat it up the temperature in software decreases and after a few seconds it gives me the error
here is the klipper log, I don't know if it coukd be useful
And the hot end does heat up since it's very hot to the touch and I'll measure the temp later with a thermometer

Did you specify the right Temperature Sensor of your Hotend in the config?
And also minimum and maximum temperature.
I did not do that
Yeah Min temp is 0 and max 450
do I just add my sensors (I have 2) name on the sensor_type:
I have 2 PT1000 do I just write PT1000?
xenial-black•15mo ago
yes
check also that the pull-up resistors are set correctly
like this for example
[extruder]
sensor_type: PT1000
pullup_resistor: 2200
max_temp: 350
the Resistor Value has ofc to fit your hardware
I don't have a pullup_resistor option

if this is in your user overrides section, you can just add that line if it deviates from the standard - but don't do this unless you find out the correct value.
first, just set the correct sensor and see what happens
I started the heating process
it looks like it's working fine now
Thank you very much man, in sorry I am a complete noob when it comes to 3d printers

Thanks have a good day
hi @Beluga @Seriosha , I have the same problem but in my printer config file my extruder section is looking different. was the image you shared Beluga of you extruder section (row 335) in you printer.cfg file? If so I think I need to reflash my board, if not where is it?
Yes that's from my printer.cfg
How does your config file look? Sharing a pic would be helpful
If I can help I'd be happy to if not im sure someone else can help ya
I'll take a pic and share but I've messed it up a bit now
scratch that I just ripped out the plug i need to rewire it quickly
It looked like this:
i then found this in the RatOS hot ends folder for the rapido:
which had all of the correct settings for me, i then copied this into my config file, but klipper then kept mentioning that control needed specifying and wouldn't boot until it was specified....
so I copied the cotroi from the first image into my config file, then it demanded that pid_kp need to be specified
so I copied the whole section in image 1 into my config so it looks like this:
now its back to sitting at 150-160 C with a 0 target
after ending up with everything in the config file, I tried to reset it by reflashing my board but it came back with my current messed up config
I think i need to reset my config and see if it picks up the correct stuff, but I don't know how to reset it
i have selected hot end and extruder, but seem to not have much about them in my config.... i've tried to copy your config which didn't work
at this point it would be better to start your own post
will do thank you
