      Make sure that the display does not show a “drive not mounted” message. If it does, the issue may be on the LCD’s microSD card, you can find how to solve this issue on this article:

      If the LCD is completely black, connect the printer to the computer through the USB port to see if it turns on, if it does not turn on the issue may be on the LCD itself.

       

      1. To disassemble the LCD screen turn off the Sigma and unplug the printer's power cable.

      2. Remove the central and the left side covers, depending on the version the screws might be in different positions. screw-iconx6 M3 8mm

      3: Depending on the motor installed you will need the 1.5mm Allen key to unscrew the motor.

      If you have the version R19 or the upgrade with the bondtech motors, disconnect the filament sensor and pull down the lower Bowden:

      4. Check if the mainboard turns on. To do so, raise the bed and remove the printer’s
      central cover. If it doesn’t, check that the power supply cable connector is properly
      connected to the mainboard.
