CTC Problems Extruding - Sounds like you having the same issues as me.
Hello guys.
Reading the thread you seem to have cured your problem. Any insight into any thing in particular as a fix?
I have tried to remove filament with the extruder apart, also tried excessive heat (Pre-Heat@250) in order to melt whatever is blocking the nozzle.
Not really sure how to proceed... dissemble and clean tubes / 0.4mm drill bits / Threaded feeder tubes / possible replacement parts.
Found UZTHEDENTIST on youtube with mods and fixes(ideas above).
This is my 2nd printer from CTC (printchainstore) that took them 5 weeks to replace. I have started proceedings on ebay, upon arrival of the 2nd printer the PSU Fan bearings sound warn and whine while trying to spin up, not sure if the fans have a cut off if there is too much resistance on them that they stop. Now the extruder failing to function. Has been a right game so far.
see my links to youtube videos:
