Pull back the mesh on the print head, and check that all the wires are plugged in. Note that there should be 1 connector coming from the electronics under the printer, towards the print head, that isn't connected to anything.
Under the printer, the cover over the electronics can be removed by undoing a couple of nuts I think. Once it's off, it's pretty easy to check if all the wires are properly seated in their connectors.
