Sonic pad troubleshooting

Long story short I got a sonic pad and finally got it to work with my printer but I have had many inconsistent prints. my prints have a massive overextrusion (I think) and I have calibrated my e steps, printed from 190-220 calibrated my retraction from 5-6 mm and speed 40-60 mm/s, but I have not noticed any changes. Any help is appreciated

I have an ender 5 pro with a stock extruder, BL touch and Bowden tube set up with a Sonic pad. I use creality slicer and orca; both have the same issue

Sunlu transparent PLA Clogs

Hello

I’ve been printing with my k1 Max for some time and never had issues until I started printing with Sunlu’s transparent PLA and have been getting some nasty clogs. I’ve increased the temp from 200-225 and reduced the speed to 50 m/s but it results in inconsistent prints. Some print just fine with good quality, zero blobs or stringing. Others get clog mid print with the filament looking chewd up. Here is an image of how it looks.

Any help is appreciated

Temperature tower test fail

I am trying to config my ender 5 pro using orca slicer’s temp tower but all I get is this blob of a mess and can’t really tell what’s wrong. I tried turning on retraction but the result is the same. Anyone knows what’s happening?

Touch fails to deploy error

Hi all.

I have my ender 5 pro with a creality 4.2.7 connected to my Sonic Pad at it was working fine until I got a “Touch failed to deploy” error on my screen. I checked the wires and they seem fine, has anyone had a similar issue and fixed it?

High Resistance on the X and Y Frames

Hello there,

I am dusting up my old Ender 5 pro and getting it ready for printing when I moved the Nozzle Assembly in the X and Y direction, and man that thing is not smooth at all. To top it off it is making some really strange grinding noises when I move it back and forth and it halts movement when the wheels make a full 360 turn. It could be that my wheels are too tight or I have to replace the belts. Posted here for anyone with more experience to help me solve this issue

Flashing a 4.2.7 board

Hi all. I’ve been constantly flashing the firmware on my board so many times to reset it back from klipper to the default on creality but the lcd screen remains black. Is this because flashing it with klipper killed my screen or is it because it is not flashed correctly? I want to confirm also that if I flash a .bin on the board with the same file name it won’t work, that is the only thing that comes to mind that could solve my problem.

Sonic pad + ender 5pro problems.

Hey there. I’m trying to upgrade my ender 5 pro with a sonic pad but I’m running into a few snags flashing the firmware and connecting to the pad; I’m thinking it has something to do with the configuration I am using. Does anyone know where I can find the default printer.cfg file that creality used to link on the sonic pad tutorial?
