Filament stuck in fin section

Hello all,

My pla filament got stuck and stopped extruding, I checked the nozzle and it seemed to be fine, so thought it could have been stuck in a burnt end of the nylon tube.

I managed to get the tube out, but as you can see in the attached photo, the filament is still welded tight inside! Anyone know why/what I should do to fix this?

Best,

Sol

You might try carefully heating it with a heat gun just until the filament softens and can be pulled or pushed out. Not so much as to actually melt the filament though. Or replace the part.
