Flashforge Dreamer (NX) - Replacing the Heat Bed and Wiring - Part 1
The cable connecting to the heated print bed in my Flashforge Dreamer NX shorted out and the bed stopped heating.
This 2-part video series covers replacing the heated print bed and wiring.
Eventually I got a replacement heater printed circuit board and wiring from Flashforge for no cost under warranty (thanks Flashforge!), but in the meantime I bought a new one from Flashforge USA so I could get back to printing.
Part 1 covers:
1) Removing the bad print bed
2) Removing part of the wiring
Part 2 covers:
1) Removing the rest of the wiring
2) Routing the replacement wiring
3) Installing the new print bed and wiring it up
4) Applying Kapton tape to the exposed leads of the print bed to prevent metal tools (like spatulas) from hitting them in the future.
