Hi, firstly you are explaining everything really nicely, I wish I had seen your video before I tried fixing mine. I have a K1 and yesterday I replaced the ceramic heater because one of the cables on it broke. After I replaced the heater, the printer worked almost perfectly but it smelled really bad and it was dropping this weird black blobs of filament on the model from time to time. Today I disassembled the hotend again to see what is going on and saw that filament covers every part of the hotend, even the screws and it was smoking whenever it reached high temperatures. It seemed to me like filament leaked from the barrel (the part where you spread thermal paste on, I am guessing that's its name, I am in Turkey so I didn't check the English name) because there were dried filament residues all over the two screws on top and the little gray metal rod that comes from the middle of the barrel. I managed to remove the hotend and ordered a new set. I followed Creality's Guide but must have done something wrong. Can you help me understand what might have I done wrong so that I won't do it again next time I install it? Hopefully I could explain what it was like, thanks in advance.
Thank you friend. These are a royal pain to shoot, and don't perform well, but, I'm hopefull they will be helpful, long term, and, I know they belong on my courses, so, I take one for the team and do them. I LOVE the K1 line. Beasts. But, OMG, there is no excuse for how complicated the hot end is.
Thank you as always for sharing the tutorial with us. I got the K1C at last but the heating block had some sort of problem and end up like that blob similar to CR10. I contacted and showed them what happened, and they sent meme the Block Kit. Now I’ve to install, and if I didn’t watch this I would have pulling my hair off (whatever is left that is). As I said that “ *_Our World is a Shared Experience_* “… Remember, “ *_Life_* is *_Short_* so *_Live Long_* and *_Prosper_* 🖖“… Thank you kindly, Cheers!!!
New K1 max printer for Christmas, direct from Creality. Towards the end of my first roll of PLA that it came with, meltdown on the hotend and toasted the thermosistor when clearing. Had a hard time getting the hex key to fit those two bottom heads that tighten upto the plastic piece then the heatsink. Luckily, with the nozzle out, I was able to swing and get them to loosen. Waiting on Creality support, I ordered 3 different Creality hot end kits from Amazon to get going quickly - all three came with a black heat sink and not that single allen head on the side. Not sure which one is newer or better. Do you have an idea? Can I take the black heatsink off of these that I bought and throw the heatsink away to attach to the natural aluminum one that doesnt require removing the PCB board to replace? Curious on that or if I need to figure out the right part number to order and wait again.... :(
Yesterday I had to put off the nozzle, and as I put it in back again, having error 2564 as I try to extrude (temperature is 25°C - 26°C and no change). Do you thing it could be white couple of wires (with 320°C written on) broken?
From what I understand, the most common breaking point, is the THERMISTOR. See if they are connected to the Ceramic, or, if they pooped off. You can also try, seperating the wires a little bit further from eachother
@@3DRundown The wires (I suppose they're the red one) are connected, just checked with the multimeter. Also, with multimeter I've tested the value of resistence of the thermistor over the connector, and it's over range (looks like it's broken). Considering I bought the printer last mounth, just hope Crealty will send me a new hotend.
So im fixing my hot end after a bit of a mishap. Did your extruder to sink not come with buffers? Cause currently you just have pressure on the nozzle to keep it attached and not jingling around. Mind you im using a K1C, but apparently the hot end is supposed to be universal?
This is really helpful, thanks! I have a K1 Max. I've been getting the "Error Key2564 The Nozzle Is Not Heating as Expected" error recently. It used to happen infrequently in the past, but now I can't get a single print to finish and I do see that the temps are fluctuating wildly. In the beginning of the print the temp was supposed to be 220 and it dropped all the way down to 180. When I got the printer, creality had included another hot end. I'm going to try replacing mine with that one. Hopefully that will fix my issue.
@@3DRundown It looks like the hot end replacement fixed it! I successfully printed a Santa bust with no issues. The temperature is staying where it should be with very minor fluctuations. Thanks so much! This video was VERY helpful! I had it on my ipad as I was doing the replacement.
Hi there! Would you happen to know why my Ender 5 Plus is making this particular noise? It's been doing this ever since I bought it. I've tried troubleshooting it a few times (around 3-4 attempts) but haven't made any progress. I've made a lot of adjustments, but nothing seems to work. Any idea what might be causing it? If you have any insights, I'd really appreciate it! Either way, thanks for your content and have a great day! here's a short (8 seconds) video of the sound it makes. ua-cam.com/video/fQAuiLnjgBg/v-deo.html

Yup. It leaked at the heat-break. There was a small gap between the "barrel" and the extruder
Even though I don't have a K1, you always produce very detailed videos . Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

How do you get the heat sink blue tube out
The PTFE under the extruder? Catch my K2+ Extruder Jam Video. The 1st one
@ I fix it thanks

Very professional explanation. Thank you for that.
Welcome! Happy to see this tedious video have some use. :)
What is the voltage to apply to heat a ceramic block separately?
I believe the Ceramics are 24v. No "block" on these
@ do you know if a heating element has a polarity?
Excelllent explanation plane and simple, thanks.
Hello, nice video. Does it fit also for older K1 max or only for 2024 model?
Yes it does.
Me salvaste
Muchas gracias, nuevo subscriptor 😊

Consider a better quality hotend: amzn.to/3ZysZ3o

Just the grub for the hotend. The nozzle is inside this
Finicky a bit those wires yikes 😮. Great video
Designed by monkeys. Ridiculous.

Start with the hot end. Hopefully it's just the Thermistor.

Mr rundown my screws are not mounting correctly
Oh hell. Elaborate. What's happening? Are you on my FB K1 group? Post some pics and video.
@ I don’t have Facebook the spacers were melted so I took those off and they mounted but I was freaking out
Don't you think those ceramic heaters are coming loose? They should have thermal paste between it and the heatblock
There is. I applied it here: ua-cam.com/video/6nCiiKYpmC8/v-deo.htmlsi=4ze-f6CBm-LuM6Ij&t=353
I am talking about the gam under the creamic heater not on the heatbreak
No. Both my original hot end, and my Microswiss Flowtech hot end, ceramic heaters, rotate freely.
@@3DRundown good to know thanks
My hot end doesnt fit in my heat sink
Loosen the grub screw more. It's a tight fit
Dude, great video
I was so close, but screws are stripped :(
Oh no..... 😡 Can you maybe force a torx bit into them?
Thick copper colored wires are the ceramic heater not the thermistor.
Like it matters. Plug'em in
On my hod i fucked up thé bad hot end Broke off
Hooooooow

Holy Molly. It sounds like it's trying to move too far, and grinding the belts/steppers. Check that limit switch in the corner.
