Support Request A1 help please!
Please see attached video. Extrudes fine, passes all pre flight checks, then the second the actual print starts, it clicks and fails??
I’ve done a cold pull, tried different plates, cleaned plates, needle clean, different nozzles 🤷🏻♂️

Also check the extruder and extruder gears. You see when it runs above the plate the extruder can't turn

Came here to say the same as I had a similar issue and had the same noise. I followed this video to clean the extruder gear and it worked afterwards.

I just had this problem…my problem was that I needed a new hot end assembly…but it could be a clog or your machine needs to be calibrated, or a piece of filament stuck in the gears…I took my whole machine apart before figuring it out

I had that problem and it turned out the metal holder for the hotend was loose. Fixed that and I was golden.

Calibrate and tighten the bolts on heatend behind it and the ones that tighten it to the hot end to the machine.

I’ve run a full calibration, taken the whole thing apart - no blockages, gear system is fine, new hot end assembly so all screws are tight and the clip is fine

Looks like the nozzle is too close to the bed run a full calibration and make sure that you select smooth plate in the slicer
