MK4 Prusa Quick Swap Nozzle clogged

After more than 5 month using MK4, with Utilization per month around 70%, finally i meet with a major issue.

I'm not sure what cause this but i found another Topic discussing about this but no success story in there.

I manage to pull the long part of the clogged but the clog still happen.

I tried cold pull, do what support told me, and also burn (using torch) the Yellow Part of the nozzle but it still clogged.

Another detail of this clog that, its not 100% clogged, because when i burn it, and push a filament, it still extrude the filament. Also, i print mainly PETG.

 

I have some project that need to be done using MK4 (not my mini) so i need quicker solution while wait for my replacement nozzle (i think will arrive in 2 weeks).

 

I hope anyone can give me something to try.

Hi, did you checked thermistor, so the set and read temp is correct?

I believe the thermistor is working quiet good. Because i set the temp to 280 and if i push the filament hard, there is a filament come out from the nozzle.
