    So I finally got my new power supply. It was easy enough to hook up - just moved wires straight from the old one to the same spot on the new. It turned on and everything seemed fine. But when I try to heat the bed or the nozzle it freezes with a "powering down" message. I can turn it off and back on. I can use the controls to move the nozzle around for a few seconds, then it will do it again.

    So frustrating - I haven't been able to print since mid September.

    Anybody know what could be causing this? I'm ready to just get a new printer. Problem is, the best deal for the money I can afford seems to be Tronxy and I'll have the same problem getting replacement parts.

    I figured it out - the voltage switch on the power supply needed to be switched from 220 to 110.Duh - I remember having to do that when I first set up the printer, but forgot to check with the new power supply. Thank goodness - I will be printing again.
