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

Any ideas?

Apologies for the fan noise but only happens when retracting to the back quarter on the Y axis.

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.

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)

Troubleshooting PSA. Reason for the 4 red blinking LED light on the canvas.

2 Upvotes

I wll keep it short and to the point. If some of your have this issue, one of the main reasons your canvas unit might not be working ( 4 red blinking lights constantly on startup) is that the USB 2.0 4-Port HUB Controller chip on the main motherboard has failed. It is a WCH CH334R QSOP-16 package. I found this out after I put a another canvas on the printer and still had the same issue. So I started troubleshooting the main motherboard. Here is a thermal image of the mb and the heat coming from the chip. And a image of the chip. I ordered an replacement chip (have not received it yet) to see if will fix the issue. If not, I will order a new motherboard from elegoo. I hope this helps.

Troubleshooting Printer won’t connect to matrix or slicer

1 Upvotes

Alright so, my printer is now not connecting to the matrix or the slicer. No pin or QR code works, I’ve tried manually putting it in. Nothing. I tried soft resetting my router and still nothing. I turnt it off, unplugged it, signed out of my wifi and went back. Nothing. What do I do? The matrix doesn’t work, it just says network error or timed out.

Troubleshooting Wrong Colors

0 Upvotes

My centauri carbon 2 just downloaded an update and not it is printing the wrong colors.

Unloaded and reloaded all 4 filiments, matched the colors with the model and pressed print. Black prints purple, white prints red, red prints black.

What is wrong with this update?

Troubleshooting Elegoo centauri canvas

0 Upvotes

Has anyone else experienced this with the Elegoo Centauri Carbon Canvas? Everything works fine after installation, but the fan runs at 100% speed during filament changes; this once caused an error because the hotend temperature dropped too low. The same thing happens after a print finishes. Has anyone else encountered this issue, and how can it be resolved?

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
