MK3.9S Loadcell troubleshooting
I have finished the assembly of the upgrade MK3S+ to MK3.9 and started the selftest. Sad to say, the test on the Z axis failed and I got the Homing error Z message, "Failed to home the extruder in Z-axis, make sure the loadcell is working." Error 27301. I checked the trapezoid nuts and tried to follow the Loadcell troubleshooting, where the "loadcell white pad" is mentioned. But I can not see any white pad in the loadcell. Where is it and what have I missed here?

I built a mk4 last and noted the load cells cover was black this time

Thanks for the answer. I can see the black pad and it is without any damage, but the test still fails. How can I solve this?

I ended up flicking the nozzle with my thumbnail, during the test... but I found the test period, quite difficult to use...

RE: MK3.9S Loadcell troubleshooting
I am not sure that I understand. How did flicking the nozzle with your thumbnail solve the problem?
RE: MK3.9S Loadcell troubleshooting
I re did the load cells calibration and had to flick the nozzle to pass the test. Then z axis passed for me

RE: MK3.9S Loadcell troubleshooting
Ok, I tried that without any luck. I do not know what is normal during this test. I noticed that during the Z axis test, there is a lot of knocking and vibrations and the right end of the X-axis goes a bit lower vs the left side.
RE: MK3.9S Loadcell troubleshooting
I made a mistake when I mounted the xBuddy box cover with M3x10 screws instead of the M3x6 screws. This made the left side halt. Sorry that I did not realize this error earlier; my bad.
RE: MK3.9S Loadcell troubleshooting
Pleased that it is sorted.
