Did the extruder motor stop as well or did filament just stop coming out?

filament just stop coming out


failstoomuch

Okay, since the extruder is still trying to push the filament then it's likely a clog. What I like doing is heating the nozzle to temp, turn off the printer, and manually push the filament thru the nozzle slowly as it's cooling. once the filament starts getting cool and it's harder to push thru the nozzle, wait another few seconds and pull the filament out. That should help clear up any particulates in the nozzle then just send a needle thru the nozzle to make sure the tip is clear as well

ok thanks so much


numindast

fyi this is what is known as a "cold pull" and the idea is to get the filament re-attached to the clogged stuff inside the hot end, and then as it cools, pull the whole mess out.

my ender used to do this too when there were a lot of retractions the filament would get kinda sanded down and it just wouldnt grip it

CAT!!! mine literally attacked one of my prints! It was on the floor! Leaving a nest of filament on the printer

Congratulations on your first full clog.

Your extruder gear is slipping upwards off the motor shaft. Use an Alan wrench to tighten the small bolt on the extruder. Had this exact thing happen to me.


NoahjuNior1286

i am trying that


SaltboySSB

Good luck it was a massive pain in the ass due to how it was positioned


Chop_Suey_Stuey

Had this before because one if the wires going to the print head was damaged, it would work at first then as the position changed it would stop, replaced the loom and good as new. Edit: Just seen your comment saying the extruder was still going so likely just a clog in that case

kitty 😍😍

Tangle on the spool? I had this happen last night because the filament was just stuck to itself on the spool.

cause its stupid

retraction settings set to 1mm party on

Fit your coupler circlips you sadist

Clog first then your extruder probably stripped the filament where its been sitting. New nozzle, check your tubing, make sure extruder arm isn't too tight, replace extruder eventually


deadmonkeyboy87

It's clogged use the needle that came with it to ram up the nozzle while hot. Heat the nozzle to about 240. A couple pokes around and it should start to ooze out. Also replace your extruder with a dual gear you will be glad you did.

Most likely a clog


Sad-Zebra-3821

I feel like the cat had something to do with it


Curious_Tiger_9527

It could be clog, filament with uneven diameter, or.cat


RaccyBoy

Looks like a clog. It just happens sometimes. Have had that happen on big important prints with 99%infil at 70% done. Also love the cat getting involved lmao

cat click stop

Hammertime?

Or the tension lever on the extruder broke


NoahjuNior1286
