Block heater clogged, possible short in heater cable, printer shutdown.

The heater should be between 20W and 40W depending where it came from and how old the printer is. Most older UM2's have 20W to 25W and the UM2+ I think might be 30W if I remember right.
40W is the lowest ohms you should see which is 14.4 ohms. 1.2 ohms is indeed broken and should be replaced.
You can get blocks from shop3d.ca in canada. I'm pretty sure they can sell you a heater also. Or you can get those things from my store (thegr5store.com) but those parts will take about 10 days to get to Canada.
