E3d jhead v6 on prusa i3 m201

[Z-ed]

Hi ,

Owner of a m201 printer and having trouble to print with the 2 in 1 hotend (abs) , I changed the hothend for a V6 j head ,

I already had the firmware wich enables 100% feed from one extruder , but I have some trouble now with my j head ,

Thermistor seems to be ok and displaying the right temp , but i can not get a stable temperature from the heat cartridge , ( for example i set it to 240° and it goes randomly from 260 to 240 "as i can see on LCD screen" ) ,

Anyway to solve that ?

Thanks

Hi,It sounds like there are some bad connections in the wiring of thermistor and heating block.Please double check the inside wiring.If it still dont work,try to replace it with a new one.

Hi ,

thanks for the quick reply , I double checked the wiring and it's ok ,
Is it possible that its caused by the v6 jhead heating cartrige being more powerfull than the 2 in 1 hotend one ?
V6 hotend cartridge can go to higher temperatures and it's 40W but I can't find how much Watts the 2 in 1 is .

Thanks
