Yes. On top of the print head there should be 3 wires related to temperature: power, ground, signal. That ground is perfect. It's probably the black wire on the black/red/yellow twisted cable but I'm not 100% certain. The fan also has a ground wire (I think).

    It looks like I am running into this issue with the dual fan upgrade I did.

    I am curious what your solution was to get this resolved?

    I wrapped the fan wires into the plastic wrap above the print head. That's probably the culprit in my case. On the good side, the fan wires are outside the print head so re-routing them away shouldn't be terrible (just need some clever way to secure things on there)

    Are there any good, locally available (auto shop, etc?) means to wrap the wires to reduce the PWM noise? I have the wires in heat shrink tubing up to the last 4 inches, where the wire leads come into the connector.

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
