    The assembly videos probably have some of these details (not sure how detailed or up-to-date they are. I have not watched them in a long time).

    I meant these:



    Not the getting started video. They have a series of videos showing the entire printer assembly in sections.

    If it is a shorted thermistor you need to contact support for a replacement at any rate, but if it is just a short in the wiring you could fix that yourself.

    well reading about it and watching videos is the best way to learn. I started off knowing very little but spent a lot of time learning about it.
