Blocked Nozzle??

Hi There, I cannot load a new filament as there is a blockage. It'd not the nozzle as I can push the needel in a fair way so it's somethin further up the tube. Not sure how to approach this problem but wonder if I need to drop the whole of the hot assembly out to see where the blockage is?

Thanks,

John

Attempt to load flament. It will fail. Mark the filament at the point where it enters the extruder (sharpie) and unload.

Now offer the filament up against the extruder, aligning your mark, and you will see how far down the blockage is.

Cheerio,
