There isn’t a fix… basically just waiting for snappy to tell us what’s wrong and give guidance.

I bought an declogger. They’re on amazon and Etsy. I was having clogs in my right nozzle and I unloaded it and pushed it out.

Didn’t help my left nozzle which had a piece of broken filament in it and the stuff in the nozzle was carbon/gooey.

Declogger seems to work well.

Do you want to print non-stop? YES YES Keep it cool.Dual extruder  
Snapmaker 2.0 right extruder getting clogged **solution !!!**

Nice sales pitch  
In addition to removing support, it is also difficult to get filament residue out of a jammed nozzle. Hopefully you won’t have to deal with it for long with the dual extrusion module with the \*\*dual extruder type 2023 \*\*  
**Well not .**

Just a sanity check: What filament do you use in the right extruder?

I had the same problem with my right extruder. I always used the breakaway support material when testing the dual extruder head. The Breakaway support needs ~20° more than pure PLA. After setting the right temperature, everything worked.

any other updates on this, maybe in another thread I just haven’t found? I also had the right extruder get stuck, and I can’t figure out what to do about it. This is common, I take it? I just got my extruder a little bit ago.

> Hi all, so finally got around trying the new door design, and it was a full success! The model that failed after less than 20 mins before, now went through in 7 hours. The filament does not show any hint of broadening/heat creep, neither on left nor on right nozzle. Already informed support about the success, now waiting patiently for what they make from it - my assumption is that they’ll release a new front door and send this to those affected. I am curious how many this might be - would you m…
