So I had a nozzle clog happen to me recently on my A1 Mini, and I removed most of the filament from the nozzle and other parts. But I’m struggling to remove the remaining filament on the nozzle clip. I will attach a picture below
I’ve just a similar problem. No amount of cleaning sorted it, once the plastic has got into the hinge there’s no realistic way to clean it out enough to make the hinge work again when cold.
Just buy a new heating element and fit it. (Worth keeping a spare in stock in case it ever happens again)
