Since you have OctoPrint I’d suggest that we try an experiment or two before replacing any parts. First, let’s take a look at the temperature graph as you use the Target controls to heat the Tool to 220 degrees (the built-in ABS value). While you are waiting to things to heat up, here’s a couple of topics to read:
