    Extruded problem

    My left extruded has stopped working. It was fine last night, but this morning nothing happens. I have unloaded and reloaded the filament, but there is still nothing. Suggestions?

    hiya,

    need a bit more detail.

    what printer is it?
    nothing means what?
    is the stepper motor turning?

    there can be a number of things. some extruders when moving around have a wire issue on the stepper motor where the connection is lost and the motor fails.
    the nozzle could be blocked. use a small wire brush and whilst the nozzle is hot, poke the nozzle with one of the strands this can unblock.
    the lever that applies pressure on the filament against the gear maybe broken and not applying enough pressure.

    you can see that a bit more explanation will help us get an idea where the problem might be.

      Becky,
      I have a Flashforge Creator Pro. When I was disassembling the lady extruder, I have stripped the 2.0 mm head of one of the screws holding the turbo fan mount plate because it was so tight. I still haven't been able to remove it, and the extruder is still plugged.
      Many suggestions?
