The printer displays the message "Temp not matching - Measured temperature is not matching expected value. Check the thermistor is in contact with heatbed. In case of damage, replace it." when the measured temperature is different from the temperature expected for the heatbed.
This can happen if any thermistor failure on the heatbed causes the printer to read the temperature within a few degrees from the target temperature, but not the target temperature itself. The heater will keep trying to heat up while the target temperature is not reached. To prevent overheating the printer generates the error.
The error might indicate some issue with the wiring, either the heater or the thermistor cables are possibly damaged.
Error name: Heatbed temp not matching
Error code: #31209 (CORE One) #35209 (CORE One L) #26209 (MK4S) #13209 (MK4) #27209 (MK3.9S) #21209 (MK3.9) #28209 (MK3.5S) #23209 (MK3.5)
Check the heatbed, where the thermistor and heater reside, and that no wires have broken off the sensor or heater themselves. Carefully try to move the cables by hand while the printer is turned off. If any of them have come detached your search is over and the part needs to be changed. It is not recommended to solder these wires, moreover, for the thermistor, it will change its resistance and thus readings. Spare parts can be found in our e-shop, or you can contact Support for assistance.
Try preheating the heatbed in LCD menu -> Control -> Temperature -> Heatbed to 90 ºC. After reaching the temperature, move the cables behind the heatbed by hand to see if the error will appear. If the LCD main screen shows 0/0 in the heatbed temperature, check the cable connections to the main board and on the heatbed.

The table below describes the correct resistance for each part and what scale you should set your meter to. We have another more in-depth guide on Multimeter usage. All thermistors are rated to be 100 kΩ at 25 °C. To be realistic, with a varying temperature between 20 °C and 30 °C, you can expect a wider range of readings (~85-125 kΩ) than with the heater.
There can be micro-fractures in the cable, breaking the connections only at certain positions. Therefore, try to move the cable while measuring to see if the value changes drastically.
| Part | Resistance | Multimeter scale |
|---|---|---|
| Thermistors (Bed and hotend) | [80 kΩ - 125 kΩ] | 200 kΩ |
| Heatbed | [2.0 Ω - 4.0 Ω] | 200 Ω |
