Bosch PBH 3000-2 FRE: Boorhamer (Bosch PBH 3000-2 FRE) reageert totaal niet

Sun, 21 Jan 2024 23:44:31 -0700

Tijdens het verwijderen van pleister (stucwerk) verminderde plots het vermogen(slagkracht) en waren er achteraan (zichtbaar door de ventilatiegleuven) meer vonken/glinsters te zien dan anders. Daar ik slechts nog een heel klein stukje moest doen werkte ik nog even door met na enkele seconde als gevolg een licht plofgeluid en niets meer. De machine doet helemaal niets meer onafhankelijk de stand (boren/beitelen).

Door de extra vonken/glinsters en het vermogen verlies dacht ik aan de koolborstels. Echter ondanks deze machine al ouder is dan 10 jaar is hij heel weinig gebruikt (enkele uren max 10uur) en als ik hem open, lijken de koolborstels nog vrij goed (lang) en goed contact te maken.

Heeft iemand een idee wat het zou kunnen zijn (toch koolborstels of iets anders)? Advies/tips hoe ik het kan analyseren/diagnosticeren worden zeker gewaardeerd.

Alvast bedankt.

Mvg,

Sam

FixHub Portable Soldering Station: Intermittent "Tool Error: Sensor Disconnect" (Error #5) during heating - FixHub SLD101

Tue, 02 Jun 2026 22:48:48 -0700

I'm experiencing an intermittent "Tool Error: Sensor Disconnect" (Error Code #5) on my FixHub Portable Soldering Station during the heating phase.

Symptoms:

- While heating, the error flashes for ~1 second, the temperature display drops a few degrees, then heating resumes. This cycles repeatedly.

- Using firmware 1.5.0 on both Hub and Iron.

- Tip is a 1.5 Bevel.

Troubleshooting already performed:

- Verified tip is fully seated (clicked in, aligned below the surface).

- Cleaned 3.5mm contacts and internal handle springs with IPA.

- Disassembled the iron handle; internal soldering points for the socket are secure and show no signs of failure.

- Measured tip resistance at ~3 ohms at room temperature.

- Tested both front USB-C ports with the original cable (same result).

- Tested with third-party 100W cables (MacBook/IKEA), which resulted in Error #11 (No Data), confirming the hub requires the specific data lines of the original cable.

The intermittent nature suggests a thermal expansion break inside the tip's sensor circuit. Are there any known issues with this behavior or specific tests I can run to verify if it's the tip vs. the iron handle's internal logic?

FixHub Smart Soldering Iron: Smart Soldering Iron cools down immediately after reaching target temperature with no error codes

Mon, 01 Jun 2026 11:24:02 -0700

My FixHub Smart Soldering Iron (SLD101) heats up to the target temperature but immediately starts cooling down as soon as it reaches it. There are no error codes displayed on the FixHub Power Station and the error log is empty.

I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps:

- Disabled both Idle and Sleep timers.

- Verified the physical switch is in the "On" (orange) position.

- Cleared the error log and performed a factory reset via the FixHub Web Console.

- Ensured firmware is up to date for both the iron and the power station.

- Tried multiple power sources, including the FixHub Power Station and a high-wattage USB-C PD plug.

- Reseated the soldering tip multiple times.

Despite these steps, the heater shuts off the moment it hits the set temperature. Is this a known firmware bug or a hardware failure in the main board or tip sensor?
