Filament stuck and broken under gears

So my MK3S stopped moving Filament.

I followed the clocked Nozzle tutorial. The Needle goes way up, like 3cm at least.

Then I wanted to remove the filament. It was worn down. I could not load it. Then I opened the "gearbox" and I can see a little bit of filament sticking out. What do I do now? Do I need new heatbreak? The printer is not even a week old?

Ok I found a video and the guy said to push it further down. But this down not work. The nozzle seems to be free. So clogged hotend?

RE: Filament stuck and broken under gears

I would recommend you following the guide below, as you don't want to damage the Hotend PTFE Tubing or the extruder gears.

 

There's also a more advanced technique called cold pull but make sure you follow carefully the instructions below as again you don't want to damage any of the parts I mention before.
