E180 pauses for no reason

My E180 gives me the error message "Hotend too cold to change filament. Please check." in random intervals during the print and pauses each time. Now it's so bad that I immediately get the message when I try to resume the print. It heats up, moves in position and then just stops again. Does anyone have any idea, why this is happening? I'm out of ideas right now.

:D Hi,What method do you use for printing?
If you use an SD card, you can try to replace the SD card to try. It may be caused by broken gcode. The nozzle and the hot bed can be heated normally but cannot be printed.

If you use the slicing software to print, it may be a problem with the motherboard reading.

Thank you for your reply, I'm only printing via sd card. For slicing I tried cura, easyprint3d and out of curiosity prusaslicer with a custom profile. The error appears with all three. I have yet to try printing via usb as well as using a different sd card.

I think I fixed it, I checked the connection of the temperature sensor and haven't had the error since.

How did you check the connection and where?
I have the same problem.
Amazon would be kind enough to replace my printer but if the fix is easy enough I want to try that first.
