PETG bracket outer sides not adhering

Anyone have any thoughts as to why my outer perimeter layers don't seem to be adhering? Is there a setting I should adjust?

Re: Print stops (incomplete) after 20+ hrs...need help

What kind of lighting do you have in the cabinet? You're running the bed at 60°C+ and the nozzle at 215°C+, and lights? (are they LED?) at whatever....there's no place for the heat to go in a tightly closed cabinet, so maybe it's building up in there, and basically becoming an oven. (Remember the E...

Re: Print stops (incomplete) after 20+ hrs...need help

90s seems awfully hot...could a sensor be off? I mean is the printer generating more heat than expected?
