Firmware or Hardware problem? Short circuit? Odd problems, not a novice

Hi everybody,

***I still need to try updating/rewriting the firmware, but I figured I'd ask for help ahead of that.

My printer was working fine, and for the most part it still is. However, the printer tries to print the model without heating up on its own, and it starts moving without adjusting z ...
