E0 Thermistor faults

Duet Web Control 2.0.4
Board: Duet Maestro 1.0
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 Maestro 3.0 (2020-01-03b3)Thermistor for E0 constantly shows -231. Bed thermistor is ok. I've tried two different thermistors in the e0 slot and neither work even in open air. As a final test I used my known good bed thermistor (still hooked to the bed header) and it still shows bad. The next power on after I put that back shows it giving good measurements agani. This clearly shows it isn't the devices. Here is the G code for those two devices.
The e0 thermistor and spare were stock Ender 3 Pro. The bed heater is a NTC 3950 100K Thermistor.

Where do I go next. I specifically paid more this time around for a non-Chinese POS so I didn't have to deal with headers backward and pins mislabeled.

-231 indicates an "open" circuit, nothing plugged in.
Please post your complete config.g, and a photo of where that sensor is plugged into the board.

T9880
Never seen such a low value...could be T100000 but depends on the thermistor

It was autogenerated for the Ender 3 Pro. However looking at the github version (2.x firmware) it appears there is a 1 missing from the end. Perhaps a minor typo in the config file generator for V3 firmware?

I'm not sure you really should be asking people for complete config.g files. The password is stored plain text. It'd be stupid to expose a printer to the internet, but still that data should prolly be kept private.
The wiring diagram is actually off here as is shown in this zoomed pictures. The cluster of E0, E1, and Enclosure are not beside the stops, but rather behind the zstop.
E0 Thermistor highlighted in green and yellow. Right now it is in the open air just to rule out a short with the microswiss.This is still mostly the autogenerated file and I expect most of it will need tweaking. But I haven't been able to heat the hotend enough to do the final tighter on my new all metal head, so I was focusing on heat first.

EDIT: It works now. The autogen wizard has a typo that left off the 1 from 98801. That most likely is the issue, but it is unlikely but also possible that I had an unfortunately tremor/twitch in that field (<sarcasm>I just love my meds, side effects and all</sarcasm>).
EDIT to EDIT: Oh, yeah. Thanks everyone - especially for calling out that low number that made me check the git hub ender 3 pro baseline.

Where are you seeing this? Because this is the configuration for the Ender 3 Pro for the RRF config tool: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chrishamm/configtool/master/public/machines/ender3pro.json
It sets both thermistors to "thermistor":100000,"beta":4092
It uses the same template for RRF2 and RRF3.Ian

You are right I zipped through it just now. Sorry.
I found the source of the other number and what happened. I didn't use the defaults because the guide I was using said not to. I used my value of 10k for the bed heater's thermistor because it's aftermarket (GCR silicone with a new aluminum plate for better levelness [Part of why I liked the idea of using a Duet product - higher heated bed current support]), but according to the Dozuki site
Set the values for both Thermistor values as: R25 – 98801, B – 4185, R – 2200
Unfortunately for me I must have missed the 1 or typed a ` insead. That 98801 does match the github for Ender 3 Pro. So I have different value than template because I used guide and it didn't work because I mistyped. So yes, this was doubly my mistake. I make typos like that entirely too often, but usually autocorrect, triple checking posts, or something catches them for me.
Sorry again, and thank you to everyone for helping me find the issue regardless of where it came from.

@LostJen No need to apologise! Easy mistake to make. Just needed to work out if there was anything needing changing our end.
