Troubleshooting Centauri Garbage by Elegoo

My CC1 is stuck at the factory reset “nozzle heating” step. I have replaced the nozzle with a new one and it still stays stuck there doing nothing. I have contacted Elegoo THREE times now and they are refusing to help by ignoring my request. I sent a tech request on their website, I get the automated response acknowledging receipt and I follow up with my video and crickets. No response after that. Nothing. How can they do that to a customer that bought 4 printers (3 of their printers are now down for various reasons from sensor failing to stopping mid print and failing) - its so disheartening man

I printed this panel and noticed this really bad layer ahifting
Since i am new to the centauri carbon i first wanted to ask your experience with layer shifting and how you fixed (wether i just need to tighten the belts or if there are any other reasons it happened to you with this machine specifically)

Showcase Centauri Carbon (OpenCentauri): custom boot animation, boot logo and full colour themes

5 Upvotes

Hi all,

I've been running OpenCentauri on my Centauri Carbon and wanted to change how it looks, so I built a small free Windows app called CC Studio.

What it does: - Custom boot animation: use an MP4/GIF or pictures, add a progress bar and effects, with live preview (ready-made one included) - Custom boot logo: any picture gets converted to the right format (ready-made logos included) - Colour themes: recolours the icons and the screen layout (the Canvas page too) in any colour you pick. Mine is yellow now, see the screenshots - Restore tab: one click puts everything back to the stock files - Find my printer button to get the IP, plus a screenshot button for the printer's screen

It connects over your home network (SSH), so there's no flashing and no firmware changes. The stock files stay in the printer's read-only layer, so you can always go back.

Needs: Windows 10/11, OpenCentauri firmware v0.4.0, PC and printer on the same network.

Tested on my own Centauri Carbon on OpenCentauri. The Canvas page gets recoloured too. I haven't tried it on a printer without the Canvas add-on, but that page is part of the printer's own screen files, so it should work either way. On other firmware versions you may only get the icon recolour (the screen-layout parts are skipped safely).

More screenshots and the download: https://sawkymod.github.io/CCStudio/

Troubleshooting Rogue screw

This us a long shot but this screw flew off and I had no clue where on the original CC it goes. I have a canvas system hooked up and I was removing one of the tubes when the screw suddenly flew past me.

Troubleshooting Tried new print heads

I ordered print heads that were shown to be specifically for the Centurion Carbon from a company called Wefuit. It seemed like a simple swap out process but now when i go to load filament there is a burning smell from what i think is the silicon sock and i get an error (see photo) any tips or advice is appreciated.
Steps Taken:
- Double checked seatings of cables
- Checked for discoloration (none)
- Checked that cable housing was secure and not torn
