Bypassing MMU2S
Hello! I've been having a heck of a time calibrating my Filament sensor, aside from printing and assembling an entire new extruder, I have tried about everything you can read about on the forums, reddit and prusa themselves. Through this I ended up snapping the tall part of the Idler door, so the sensor has become impossible to trigger. Is there a way I can bypass this without disassembly to print a new one? I would really rather not mess with the wiring (or really take the printer out of the enclosure again). I just need to trick it for this one print, is there any advice out there I may not have come across yet? or any updated solutions?
Thanks in advance!
RE: Bypassing MMU2S
Use the LCD to turn the filament sensor off and you can insert the filament directly into the printer, bypassing the MMU altogether
use the LCD Menu option to manually insert the filament...
use a non MMU2 profile Mk3S or Mk3S+ Profile) to print the MMU2 version of the Idler door (Consider printing the MMU3 idler door filament sensor chimney and chimney base instead, as this is easier to adjust than the MMU3 version... )

the idler door file, should be in this ZIP File (Download, and Unzip) extruder-idler-mmu2s
https://www.printables.com/model/531604-mmu3-printable-parts/files
the revised MMU3 filament sensor parts should be in this ZIP File chimney-base-R3
