Maybe Problem with Calibrating Filament Sensor

When I am calibrating the filament sensors,

I found two I think are problems with Extractor Head #3.

1.  When I start the calibration the Tool Exchanger only makes contact with Extractor Head #3 where the others, Tool Exchanger only removes the Extractor Head from its attach bed.

2.  When I am feed the filament into the side sensor only sensor #3 only show “[“ symbol before and after the filament going through the sensor.  The others will show “Off” and “On” as it goes through the sensor

Swap the suspect nextruder with one of your-known-to-be-working ones; does the fault move with the nextruder or stay with the dock and side sensor?

Cheerio,
