    Default Heater only works at max level (4)

    Hello

    Title says it. I have searched the Internet and it tells me it is the resistor of the heater. I see which piece it is.

    Anyone had the problem before? Is there a way to fix it short of buy a new resistor?

    The pics are gone but the text is useful enough.

    Also consider changing your microfilter. The added resistance from a dirty filter likely will not help any other problems

    Damn, I'd forgotten about how many photos I'd embedded here, lemme try and fix 'em

    EDIT: Fixed, but you'll have to give photobucket an hour or so to catch up with itself!
