#Ender 3 V2: Filament not coming out

I have done numerous tests to check my filament.

The Issue:
I just fixed the idler gear of my extruder, and that temporarily fixed the issue. It will go around the G-Code path, but no filament comes out. But. When I stop the print or do autohome, a small dot of a filament can be seen out. Could it be my bed's levelling that is making the filament push up into the nozzle? Could there be a clog? I'm not entirely sure of what's going on.

Tuning:
Bed: Leveling with a piece of paper
Temperature: 210-215 Celsius
Speed: 50
Material: PLA Filament

It sounds like you may have a clog in your nozzle or a partial blockage in your filament path. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can take:

  1. Check the nozzle: Heat up the nozzle to your printing temperature and try to manually extrude some filament. If no filament comes out or it comes out slowly, there may be a clog. Try using a small needle or unclogging tool to clear any debris from the nozzle.

  2. Filament path: Ensure that the filament path from the spool to the extruder is free from any obstructions or tangles. Sometimes, tangled filament can lead to extrusion issues.

  3. Bed leveling: While bed leveling can affect the first layer adhesion, it should not cause the filament to push into the nozzle. Make sure the nozzle is not too close to the bed, as this can restrict filament flow. Adjust the bed leveling if necessary.

  4. Test with different temperature and speed settings: PLA typically prints well around 200-220 degrees Celsius, so try lowering your temperature to s...

This happens on all my g-codes besides 1.

#

So, could it be the code itself too?

I am quite confused.
