    Typically a loose or bad thermistor/thermistor connection.

    It seems to be on the heated bed. The bed temp is acting weird. But the thermistor on the extruder is acting normal

    That is where you should start then.

    How do I test it if I do not have another thermistor for the bed

    With a multimeter. Its a standard 100k epcos thermistor. Also can check for shorts/opens doing a continuity check on both heater and thermistor as well as the wiring
