I have a CR-10 S and recently my printer has paused my prints, said no filament when there’s been almost a full roll I’m not quite sure why it’s doing this thought about reformatting my SD card but wanted to see if anyone here had any suggestions any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hmmm how would I go about fixing that?

I would start with the cheapest of the 3. Check all connections for the filament sensor and wiring. From sensor to board. Next the sensor.

But hopefully one of the vets can jump in to confirm my theory.

Filament has room to go@above the sensor and trigger a false positive

#

This will fix it

#

Or just remove it and tape the sensor shut.

Yeah one thing I noticed is that on the filament sensor it’s been worn down because of the filament gliding along the plastic it’s almost broken through

Honestly on two of mine I just have it off and taped shut. Its@never saved a print. The bed cools and you have to start it again anyhow.

What part do you tape shut?

stable surge
#

Take the sensor cover off you’ll see. It’s a switch.

You’re learning. I’m learning. We all are.

Need to make more mistakes to learn. That’s the key 😂
