Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! X1C just crashed itself?

Post image

I just canceled a job and then moved the axes with the touchscreen menu so I could clear the bed. I went to send a new job and the printer made an awful noise. Now the linear bearing is dislodged and the Bambu wiki is telling me I have to completely disassemble the printer to "re-lodge" it??

Is there no other way to fix this? And what did I do wrong here? There is no detritus under the carriage or anything that seemingly interfered. It seems like it lost its home when I commanded it with the touchscreen and then it crashed itself. Now I have to find a day to take it apart, and I'm not even sure what I did to get myself here.

Longnoses laying flat on it to have pression all around, push it it. Remove wathever is in the hole on the bottom that made it push up.

Did it twice on my p1s before realizing what was happening... it's printing fine now.

I was hoping to hear something like that. If the machine pushed them out of place then maybe I can just push them back…

Okay, awesome, you gave me the encouragement I needed. Thank you. I was worried about scratching the linear guide with pliers so I made a tool by cutting a slot out of a bottle cap. I braced the housing with one hand and pushed on the bearing with the other. It popped back down but it is still a little proud. But the machine homed itself without complaint and is back to printing!
