I was searching for specific videos directly relatled to my P2S and the new AMS, but found nothing I understood. I was removing one of my spools to read the tag on the side, and I accidentlly snapped the filament. I can’t physically reach it, nor even see it, when I look into the feed funnel. So, it must be inside PTFE tube that is connected to the bottom of the geared feeder mechanism and the 4 way splitter fitting. Does a simple way exist to remove the broken filament, without taking the AMS 2 Pro apart? I did remove all of the spools I had loaded into the AMS, thinking that access would be quick and simple. I was under the impression quick disconnects were at the 4 way splitter fitting, but I there isn’t. Suggestions, links, video links etc., for my exact AMS 2 Pro are more than welcome.

At the four way splitter, press in the rubber and remove the relevant tube. Same as with the end with the gear alrhough you may need like a screwdriver to reach it

Thanks very much. I was expecting to see a quick release similar to the one on the back, and didn’t inspect the hook up as I should have.

I have a similar problem but I have been able to clear up to the PTFE tube. From everything I have read, I should be able to simply push filament through the feeder to clear the remaining portion but the feeder will not allow me to push anything through nor pull the remaining filament out. It is almost like the feeder is locked onto the filament. Power was turned off. Ive tried pushing through filament without pushing on the feeder and with but neither works. Any suggestions to clear this?
