Heating failed

[printerfan 5]

My heater block keeps shutting off once reaching the desired print temp or will shut off following an error after printing for a while "heating failed" displayed on my ulticontroller (screen appears faded when error appears).

Cura seemed to reset a week ago, deleting my saved printer configurations. Maybe this is playing a role?

What should I do to fix this issue? Is it hardware or firmware problem?

Try installing the firmware again.

Also check the tightness of the screws where the wires connect to the heated platform, mine were a little loose, since tightening ive had no problems

I think I discovered the cause of the issue. I forgot I had added and activated plug-ins shortly before experiencing the heating error. After removing the plug-ins, I was able to print for 30 mins with no issues and the print quality was pretty good. I stopped the print because I had to go somewhere and did not want to leave the printer unattended.

I will tinker with the plug-ins and post which one it ends up being the cause.
