I have no clue. It seems to just get a wild hair up it's a** in the middle of a cycle and decides to ramp up for no reason. Last night I left my studio when it was at 750 degrees. At some point between 750 and 75 degrees it decided to shoot up enough to melt all of my beads, however all of my mandrels were not ruined this time because I think since it was on it's way down to 75 it shut itself off before it reached a temperature of 2,000+ I went back out to my studio after cooking dinner to find melted beads.
I'm so confused, I don't really know which part is bad and I think the easiest thing to do is buy a new kiln and deal with repairing the Fuseboxx II later.
