About the printer:
- Prusa I3 MK3 [Sintron]
- Arduino Mega 2560 (just replaced)
- Replaced LCD / Smart controller
- FIRMWARE 3.8.0
Steps I have already tried:
- Replaced faulty Arduino
- Failed to flash firmware with PrusaSlicer
avrdude-slic3r: Could not open port: /dev/cu.usbmodem1421
- Connected using Pronterface
- Replaced LCD Display / Smart Controller
I replaced the Arduino on my I3 MK3 and have tried to flash firmware V 3.8.0. The AVRDUDE logs in Prusaslicer say the flash succeed. I haven't gotten any response from the printer. I also replaced the LCD display / Smart Interface to see if it was faulty.
The screen displays the same block-bar pattern. The heat bed starts to hear up, as well as the extruder tip, the extruder fan also runs. There is no response from the dial on the LCD display / interface. When I try to engage any of the stepper motors using Pronterface, nothing happens.
I have also already read this this post. I am hoping that the print shield isn't fried.
This is the log output after attempting to flash firmware using Prusaslicer:
