Hello anyone who can help!
I was removing some stuck filament from extruder as I have a few times.
Like a complete idiot, I left the X1C on while doing this. When plugging back in a plug, I couldn’t get it in with my fingers so I used a pair of metal needle nose pliers.
I slipped and touched the two contacts circled in red with the pliers and immediately saw a spark. The Bambu lab logo that lights up on the front of the assembly immediately turned off.
I’m afraid I short circuited something and am afraid to try to print. That light will not come on so I’m sure other things are fried too.
Any ideas what I short circuited and what I need to do to replace?
Thanks all I really appreciate it.

Thanks Anthony. I tried that. It seems only the LED on the front of the housing is out. Everything else seems normal so far (nozzle heating, fans spinning, extruder pushing filament) with the exception of the logo light.
I suppose this is not as much of an emergency now since all seems to be working except the light.
Do you know if something on the TH board is fried or is it just the front housing assembly? Or how can I check without buying a new front housing?
That you’ve fried something is certain. It seems you got lucky though, and whatever you fried only supplied power to those LEDs. Hard to imagine the machine has a dedicated power supply for just those LEDs, but I could imagine they send 12V or 24V to the printhead and a regulator there steps it down for the LEDs, in which case it’s just that regulator that you blew up and you’re good to go minus a little blingy illumination.

There should have been an option to turn off that light in the menu as well
