Year ago i bought mars 5 which came broken, this one is month old… elegoo is absolute garbage… i think the problem is suction (i used raft the “boat one”) i wrote to the support,

First resin printer

I ended up getting the mars 5, not because it’s cheaper but because it takes less space and regarding leveling, the big mistake Elegoo and some other brands did was calling it auto leveling, it was never auto leveling just a bunch of springs. The first thing I will do when I get it is manually level

How screwed am I? 😬

Just know that Elegoo doesn’t make replacement parts for the Mars 3 anymore so you’d have to buy 3rd party. However, it really doesn’t make financial sense to repair the machine since you can buy a newer model for around $270. I had to buy the Mars 5 Ultra. Had to warranty the touchscreen after a mo

Sucess but then repeated printing failures, would really appreciate help.

Printhead PCB borked.

That’s precisely what I didn’t say or suggest. I don’t think Elegoo are horrible.

Repeated failed prints

I’ve been using my Mars 5 Ultra for a month now non-stop. It seems build plate is made in such a way that I had to change my base exposure time from 36s to 60s for small objects seen in your second photo. 90s is sometimes required for larger surface areas. Even with those ridiculous base exposure se

Soo i require help

It’s honestly not even worth the trouble to fix, imo. I’m not rich but buying a newer model is like $200 and those screens are 1/3 or more of the cost compared to a new LCD screen. That’s if it even is a another broken LCD. Your issue appears to be electrical. Resin probably leaked on a component an
