Hey everyone. I’m on my 4th or so roll of filament. I’ve used mostly PLA with a little ASA mixed in. I was swapping out my PLA roll and ran into this issue for the first time ever: my filament won’t load. It’s being pulled into something, but isn’t getting pulled down into the nozzle. I’m assuming something is out of alignment somewhere perhaps, but I’m really not sure. The needle goes all the way into the heated nozzle, so it doesn’t seem like a clog. I’m guessing what I should do is remove the hot end and take it apart, but I’m hesitant to do so because I’m a noob and don’t want to mess anything up. Advice would be great!

For the record, I did all the work with a heated nozzle, I tried feeding a bunch, but it always hits a point where the feeder wheel turns and nothing happens, and I cut the filament at a very steep angle (more than 45°… as thin as I could get it)
