I love how even when you found the hardened filament, you didn’t stop there and you showed other possible problematic pieces for others to see what to do (like the direct drive gears)
Thank you so so much! My ender 3 se v3 had a very bad case of it clogging after I ran out of filiment and it got stuck there. I tried everything and looked everywhere for tutorials. I couldn’t find a single one.. Until I found this one which is the best tutorial I have ever seen, it’s at perfect pace, goes over every detail and everything you should watch out for. Tells you what to do incase certain stuff were to happen or if you need a slightly different solution. You have all my thanks.
@@KakiDIY No problem, it helped alot although very unfortunately my printer broke again lol. It was leaking this black, glassy like substance that was plastic like in texture that was so hot it melted through the print bed. Sorry to ask but do you have a video on leaky filaments or that anyone else has one? Just wondering but thanks a lot for the tutorial as I helped me finish my build.
Thankyou this totally worked - was a bit nervous unscrewing all those screws lol - and praying you reversed it at the end so I could put it all back together again - but got the clog out and now its working perfect again.. It has given me the courage to now try on my 2 x flashforge ones lol
excellent instructions, i haven't had a clog yet since 8 months of ownership but this is a great resource to have on hand should the problem eventually arise. thanks.
Thank You for your comments. You must have given lots of care and attention to the printer and feeding it good quality filaments... thanks for watching !
My v3 SE has gotten into the habit of clogging at the end of every print. I use mainly PLA, and the clog turns up in the same place as you've shown in this video. What I do to unclog is preheat TPU, use a candle to heat up the tip of the cleaning rod and push it in and through the clog, then burn off the residue that sticks to the rod. Repeat about twice more until I can't feel anything impeding the movement of the rod and all is well and I can print again. My problem now is just the fact that it clogs after EVERY print.
I have an ender 3 v3 se, and Ive been looking all over online but Can’t find anywhere what type of metal the filament drive gears in the extruder are? I wanted to run carbon fiber PETG but have heard you need to make sure your gears aren’t brass. I have a steel nozzle for it already also.. Would you happen to know if they are brass gears? Thank you very much!
Don't think they are brass.. just normal metal. The hotest I ran was 260 degrees for polycarbonate.. and normal PETG.. the drive gears worked fine for both.. probably adjust the drive gear tensioner... should be OK
Just put back the tube. It is a heat break PTFE tubing that is from the dame diameter as a Bowden tube. If you lost it, just get a bowden tube like Capricorn, cut it to length and replace it.
@KakiDIY I figured out I had plugged the fa s in the wrong way so the heat sync fan was the cooling fan so the filiment was getting warn inside the hot end softening and then clogging haha

Great work! And yeah, way too many screws to our liking. But it is doing it's job to make the printer look nice.

Thank you, you helped me a lot with this video, I didn't know what to do to unclog the pipe
Thank you VERY much!!!
This helped A LOT. I was able to unclog my printer and fix it :)

Good tip.. Thanks !
I have almost the same problem, mine clog after every filament chance, as soon as try retraction
Thank you for this. You save us.
You are a good man.
Thabks'to you a just fix my machine tonight, really useful video 👌❤️
Thank you for sharing 🙂
Thank you!!! It worked!!!
I needed a step by step guide to disassemble it, the filament got stuck between the gears, thank you very much
Thank You!!
Thanks, u video was very usefull!!
Glad to hear that! Thank You
My extruder moto pin is glued too, how do I change it so ?
thank you sooo much! you saved me and tons of my nerves :))))
You helped me a Lot once, Now my SE clog after every time I go for retraction to change filaments... Anyone ever heard about it? Thank you
what kind of screws does the heatsinks fan use?
I have an ender 3 v3 se, and Ive been looking all over online but Can’t find anywhere what type of metal the filament drive gears in the extruder are? I wanted to run carbon fiber PETG but have heard you need to make sure your gears aren’t brass. I have a steel nozzle for it already also.. Would you happen to know if they are brass gears? Thank you very much!
Don't think they are brass.. just normal metal.
The hotest I ran was 260 degrees for polycarbonate.. and normal PETG.. the drive gears worked fine for both.. probably adjust the drive gear tensioner... should be OK
They appear to be steel not brass, possibly a hardened steel but they're certainly more durable than brass
Please, what should be the length of the PTFE tube? Thank you
Mine measured at 4.5 cm for longer tube connecting to the extruder. The small tube for the heartbreak I measured at 1.9 cm.*
I have a small tube that fell when I changed the nozzle, what can I do?
Just put back the tube. It is a heat break PTFE tubing that is from the dame diameter as a Bowden tube. If you lost it, just get a bowden tube like Capricorn, cut it to length and replace it.
My printer has a horrible jam, no matter how hard I push with nozzle cleaner, the jammed piece does not come out, :c I don't know what else to do.
Man its impossible to remove nozzle head. its not turning like yours. What will i do now? its looking damaged now.
Ohuh... I find it easier to remove when the hot end is heated up. Heat it up to 250.. and try it ?
@@KakiDIY yea i tried to remove without heating first but it was already damaged when i heat it. I just bought new hot end.
And what if it clogs up Every time you print! It does about 5 layers into a raft and then boom clogged
Try to chdck filament temperature.. or change another filament?
@KakiDIY I figured out I had plugged the fa s in the wrong way so the heat sync fan was the cooling fan so the filiment was getting warn inside the hot end softening and then clogging haha
Some idiot put some kind of glue on the cables that connect the cr touch and hot end…
Yeah that's standard for Creality. Just use some needle nose pliers. Comes off pretty easy.
@@dailyprofitcenterAh, thanks for the tip mate! I’ll be sure to try that next time I open my printer up.
Same with this one. We left it untouch ..
@@KakiDIY Yeah, I saw that in your video after I rewatched it.
No wander you clogged the hot end. Try using the filaments that Creality recommend Noob.

Hey, may I ask you a question about the Ender 3 v3 se?
Yes whats up?
