This part fell out of my extruder...

I was checking to make sure the bondtech gear was properly aligned with the filament and after opening the "door" opposite the screws this little doodad fell out.  Where does it go?

Best Answer by bobstro:

That is the cover to keep light out of the filament sensor. It goes up at the top in the little notch in front of the hole for the sensor.

That's it. The little part just sits in there. I've lost mine a few times.

I would just print another one if it is damaged.
