I am in the process of buttoning up a Nitehawk conversion on my Voron. I also replaced my extruder thermistor with an OE replacement purchased from a reputable vendor.

Post setup, my heated bed is reading spot on (it’s 18.3 C in my basement aka 65 F). I verified that my extruder is also at ambient temperature by wedging a Thermapen under its silicone sock and letting it acclimate for 10 minutes. The I’m not sure why the extruder would be reading high.

I bought a spare thermistor and wired it in. The result was identical.

Thoughts? Ideas? I’m pretty sure I have the Nitehawk and thermistor set up correctly.

    I am less concerned about the board temp and much more curiosity about the reported temporary difference between the extruder and bed.

    I totally agree that the nitehawk PCB temp is quite possibly normal.
