A few quick options:
- Check if you are not using an Ultimaker 2 Go power supply unit.
- Check if on the electronics end or the bed-end none of the wires are touching.
- Feel free to upload a picture of your electronics terminal on which the heaters are connected to check for burned marks or anything strange.
- 4th option; your heated bed is broken.
checked all these. Power supply is the correct one.
None of the wires are touching.
Heat bed is not broken as i replaced it with a brand new one and still didnt fix the problem.
I have uploaded a pic of the back of the motherboard (post above) were it looks a tad burned.

Have you tried only heating the bed (and nothing else?) It could be that all the systems combined draw to much power, causing the UM2 to turn off.
yes. Ive tried manually heating the bed and as soon as it begins to heat up it shorts out and turns off then back on. Ive also tried isolating the two wires that connect from the motherboard to the heat bed. this was to check if the UM2's wires are faulty but even when i used new wires it didnt fix the problem.

Thanks for the help everyone. I managed to get a replacement part from a local re-seller.

Hey Everyone,
Im trying to buy a replacement heat bed for my ultimaker 2 but I'm unable to see an option to ship it to Australia.
Is Ultimaker no longer shipping directly to Australia?

Hey All,
So when the build plate for my Ultimaker 2 starts to heat up i think there's a short somewhere, causing the printer to restart its self. Feels like its earthing out somewhere.
I've checked all the wires connected to the bed and all the solders are fine.
Only other information i can give is I've tested the bed when disconnected from the printer and got a reading of 30 ohms. Not sure if that's what its supposed to be giving off or not.
Any thoughts on this? should i just order a new heat bed? Is there anything else i could do to troubleshoot the problem?
Thanks In advance,
Josh
UPDATE: There is this small burn mark on the heat bed itself. This could be causing the problem?

so turns out it was the power brick that was shorting out. Got a replacement one and it works fine.
Thanks for your help.
