Could a nozzle crush have damaged the loadcell sensor?
Hi, I had an accident with some poorly written gcode and have crushed the nozzle into the print plate, so it dug in and moved around making a horrible sound 😫
After replacing the nozzle and the print sheet, I did run the calibration again and it feels to me like the loadcell test now requires a bit more force applied to the nozzle to pass. The prints, however, come out just fine, and the nozzle does not seem to hit the print plate hard during the bed leveling.
Hence the question - could that accident have damaged the sensor, or do I just remember the initial test incorrectly? From what I understand about the loadcell technology it is unlikely, but I want to double check before trying the ruby nozzle.

I don't think that your loacell is damaged, you probably remember it wrong.
However, I've used the attached 3mf to determine first layer errors. If there is something wrong(like bed leveling or something) it will show up there. Try it and see what results you get.

Thanks for your advice @avarice! I finally got time to run the test, there are no first layer errors, it turns out just fine. So I'll consider the sensor to be in order
