GeeeTech A10M not printing.

Post by NCKeyman » Sun Sep 06, 2020 5:51 am

Hi,
I have never done this forum thing before but here I go.

I have an A10M that has been sitting for maybe over a year now. I expected there was going to be issues "waking it up" so I was ready for that.

I replaced the tip right off. The filament I am using is new out of the sealed bag. Bed is leveled and good clearance but the nozzle and the bed. I have the 3D-touch and have auto leveled the bed.

The problem is there is nothing at all coming out of the nozzle. I thought alright, let me replace the nozzle again. I removed the nozzle and decided to heat up the Extruder Head with the nozzle off to see if it would come out with it removed and it did not. I let it cool down a bit and pulled the Teflon Tubes off the head and used the thumb gear up at the Extruder to make sure it moved freely in the Tube, it did. I then look down the Tube holes on the Head and did not see any thing I could do from that end so I pulled the Extruder Head from the X asis so I could see in the hole the nozzle goes to see if I could see anything and did not see anything I could do from there either.

That is where I am at now. What do I can I do from here, replace something, look at something?

Hello, according to your description, if your nozzle is not extruding, it may be blocked at the hot end. You can refer to the video below to clean it up. There is another possibility. Please observe whether the temperature of the nozzle reaches 210°C. If possible, you can also take a picture to solve the problem. :D
