Filament wont load

Filament wont load, extruder clicks while trying to load. I tried to adjust the tension in the springs and i think i made it worse. Are there any tutorials on how to adjust the tension?

Best Answer by Brian:

The end of the screw should be flush. Although I doubt this is the issue.  If you've replaced the nozzle I suspect misalignment or blockage somewhere.

RE: Filament wont load

Is your nozzle plugged?

  • It may have been originally. But I put in a new nozzle and it still having problems. I know there's some type of method to those springs.

I also have that sometimes. The issue is often solved if you cut the filament again at another angle.

RE: Filament wont load

It happened for me as well when I tried to load PLA after used the nozzle for PETG. The set PLA temp was not sufficient to melt the PETG residue inside the nozzle. I had to load PLA as PETG to flush the PETG, then I was able to load PLA as PLA. But this mean an extra load-unload cycle. Not being able to change temperature while loading is somewhat stupid.
