Rapido Thermistor Repair?
To jump to the end: Is the wire from the Rapido hot end thermistor fixable, or would I be better suited with simply getting a new one?
I am getting an ADC out of range shutdown during movement. Movement includes the probing process and manually jiggling the wire connector. The issue can occur with and without heat. The issue does not occur when stationary.
I have just replaced the wire from the thermistor wire to the board and it did not correct the issue. To clarify, there is a short wire from the hotend that leads to a long wire that leads to the board. I only replaced the long wire.
"Jiggling" is not a rigorous test, but the issue was easiest to recreate when moving the short side of the connection between the two wires. The side that leads to the hot end and not the side that leads to the board.
If it is the short end, is this fixable? Either by cutting and re-crimping the connector, some sort of glue in the connector to ensure it doesn't wiggle badly, or something to hold the connector stationary? Or must I accept the fate of the fragility of the Rapido and get another?
Edit: I'm actually just going to jump to the Rapido 2, especially since one of the new features specifically addresses this. So this is a low priority issue, but I would like to fix this one if I can
I don't think pictures are terribly helpful but, there were signs of trouble before shutdown errors as well
