Hot end crash. Can I fix this?

Bambu Lab P1 Series Troubleshooting

The hot end of my new P1S got pushed into my part and bent. Is this something I can fix?

For reference, I woke up to a large print 90% complete. The printer thought it had a clog. Attempting to restart caused the AMS to try multiple time to feed in the material. Finally, the hot end moved to the middle of the print and froze.

I figured I needed to give up and do a new print so I hit stop (square on LCD of printer) when the machine made a horrible noise and I shut off the power.

The fix is to replace the hot end. Your printer came with a spare nozzle which you can transfer all of the parts over too. Another easier option is to order a complete nozzle so replacement is two screws and some connectors.

Thanks @JonRaymond . I didn’t remember it came with an extra.

For those that need to do this, it is pretty simple (thanks Jim :slight_smile: ) :
