This afternoon I suffered my first Blob of Death, and it was a doozy. The PLA backed up into the toolhead so much the silicone sock around the primary hotend was bulging almost into the secondary area and enough to make removed the front cover difficult, and there was PLA all the way up to the top of the piece that holds the hotend (not sure what it’s called).
I did my best to clear it out gently and carefully, following the Bambu’s instructions, but with most of the plastic cleared out, one of the two black wires is separated from the bottom of the hotend holder, and so is one of the two bare wires. I’m not sure if this happened as a result of pressure from the Blob (seems unlikely), or during the pulling of plastic globs (seems more likely).
So… how hosed am I? Even if I had some sort of high-temperature solder and the skill to use it, the wires are super tiny and the screws in that area are still clogged with solid PLA and I doubt I could do anything except more damage. Is there a relatively simple way to fix this? I poked around web searches for replacement X2D tool heads, and came up empty, but I likely don’t know what words to use. Any guidance would be appreciated!
