PINDA bracket broke

I have gone thru the assembly instructions to see how to reverse assemble it so I can change the part that holds the PINDA. I come up with nothing. What part do I need and how do I go about installing it. I don't want to go in blind and just take apart everything only to find out there was a simpler way. HELP!

RE: PINDA bracket broke

I've been printing a boatload of PCCF lately and as a result my PINDA holder was sagging so I replaced it with one printed with PC-CF.

The part you need is extruder-body.stl at https://www.printables.com/model/57217-i3-mk3s-printable-parts/files

You have to disassemble the whole hotend. Just follow https://help.prusa3d.com/guide/5-e-axis-assembly_169235 in reverse. It's not that difficult. Make sure when you've put it back together again to recalibrate your z axis and redo live Z.

Thanks for your input. Now that I know what it looks like I realize I already have a spare made. So it's time to get to work!

Another problem.......................took a bunch of stuff apart and things where going well until I ran the Z axis all the way up for easier accessibility. Now the Z axis will not go down and I cant get to the rear screws to tighten them. What to do?

Never mind. I didn't think I should push down on the Z motor screws so I didn't. But then I did, so I'm all set.

RE: PINDA bracket broke/ now this

I replaced the PINDA bracket and did the Wizard calibration. All's fine. That is until I started to print a part for my project. I've had crashes before and dealt with them. This time I have no idea what's going on. Help please!
