Thermistor Cartridge Swap

Hello,

I'm trying to switch the thermistor cartridge out on my mk2 with the e3d v6 because the wiring on the old one snapped off at the black connector. However, I can't get the old thermistor out. I've already unscrewed the hex nut on the bottom but the cartridge remains stuck. I've tried pushing an allen wrench against the non-wired side but no luck.

Does anyone have any advice on how to remove it? I've consulted the e3d wiki but that was not helpful. Thanks!

Bringing this back from the dead. This just happened to me. How do I remove the thermistor? It's stuck in there.

I had a similar issue and ended up having to heat up the block with a heat gun to get it out.
