I purchased and Ender V3 and it worked fine for a couple of prints. Now, however, it has starting acting very flakey and inconsistent. Sometimes it has trouble auto-leveling (the little plunger sometimes doesn’t come down, but after a restart it will), but almost always if it starts a print, even though my slicer file will say something like an hour to print and when I initially load the file it will say an hour to print, it goes through it’s initialization functions then changes to just a minute or two, then says complete without actually doing anything. I did re-install the firmware and tried only files that have worked previously. Any other ideas of things I can try? Is there any sort of factor reset option?
What printer is this, the Ender 3 V3 doesn’t have a little plunger?
Reckon it might be a CRtouch or BLtouch probe. Could be a V3 SE or KE as they have a CRtouch? MIght need to look at a new CRtouch, seems to be a few of them failing of late.
