It boils down to not being able to upload a fully functional copy of marlin, the one i have on now has no control over the hotends and if i try to heat them up i get a error telling me heating failed printer halted please reset

Hi, does the hot end of the LCD screen showroom temperature? Have you checked that the thermistor wiring is properly connected?

can you send me the details on how you completed the change to the Chimera hot end. What additional wiring do I need? Do I need new power supply? I have the 2 in 2 out Chimera hot end on order...i understand i need a new mount (that is if I can print one out)...Thank you
