    How do I reattach the temp monitor to the extruder?

    The thermistor? Just (gently) push it back into the hole* in the hotend. You will either need to get
    some Kapton tape to wrap around it to hold it there or use some high-temp RTV/silicon/something.

    *not the hole the filament extrudes from, there should be one on the side near where the nozzle attaches (but in the hotend itself, not the nozzle).
