What is the fix? The flex chain cable hangs up on the small screw holding the right side panel top center.
It’s hard to conceptualize your description. Can you post a photo or video the the obstruction?

Look at the right side panel center inside top, see roundhead 3mm screw at that location.
I put a strpe of foam from back to front in the slot that I had laying around, so the chain can not catch on the screw. You can also put some tape over the screw.
Saw a print that creates a ramp over the screw on maker world.
I normally don’t visit Makers World. They don’t provide the f3d files for any models so I usually visit Printables. But I did search on Makers World under P1S, there are so many models, it took some time, but didn’t locate model. So I just removed the screw.
What happens to print when it hangs up on that screw?
Do you get an error message of any sort?
I am having an issue with my printer that so far has not been resolved and curious how your problem shows itself.
You notice a drag sound and looking at the chain you see it hanging up on the screw. Only happens when the print is close to the right side of bed. No error.
Thanks
I do appreciate it. Too give you some context for my question. I’m get a false fault on Toolhead Front Cover has fallen off. Totally false. Has never fallen off or even been ajar. I know more about “Hall Sensors” then I ever wanted to know. There is one that triggers the fault I describe above and one for filament (or lack of filament) going into the extruder. I spent 30+ years working in a heavy industry that made use of tens of thousands of controllers, not robotic, pre-robotics. But my problem has all the hallmarks of a software problem I now have an almost complete toolhead spare electonics inventory which I was going to buy myself over time.
Support has been good though so no complaint’s there but it still is frustrating to have a brand new printer fresh out of the box by only a few days that won’t run.
I’m getting ready to respond to their latest “try this/do this” email that didn’t work.
You may already know this but keep the process well documented so you have tangible proof of the problem and your interactions trying to solve the problem. In this context, too much information courteously exchanged is much more effective than not enough.
