I know it makes a high pitched electric motor sound, but this was something different and rather loud. The singing comment is about the feeder had stopped turning, the material had been removed and still the motor was singing loudly.

Hi so I have been having under extrusion problems for a while. I have tried different types of PLA, ABS, cleaned using the atomic method, tightened and loosened the feeder. This morning while reversing material (change material function) the feeder started to sound like a siren, and even when the material had been moved it was singing but the wheel was not moving. Im pretty confident to take the thing apart. Has anyone experienced this?

Has anyone experienced this? I removed a piece of PLA about the size of a matchbox from the casing around the print head. The entire aluminium casing was full of material. I suspect it sprung a leak and continued to extrude. It has even bent the copper heating head so it no longer sits flush.
