Extruder stopping after several minutes

Printer starts fine and prints as it should. About 4 or 5 minutes into the print the extruder stops turning (confirmed by watching extruder gear) while x and y continue as they should. New one on me! Machine has three very busy years of time on it. Mother board failing? Could use ideas.

RE: Extruder stopping after several minutes

sounds to me like an cable issue or a overheating steppermotordriver

maybe manipulate the cable towarts the extruder when printing and see if the problem stays the same or if it happens sooner or later ?

is there any buildup in the extruder that is making its life harder ?
