Ultimaker S5 Filament won't unload

Hi, 

 

I have a critical issue with filament. 

 

Issue: PLA Filament does not unload when press the unload button, motor sound was normal, but the filament did not move.

 

Observation:  I heated the nozzle to 220 degree, then I lifted the lever on decoupler and tried to pull the filament out manually, but it is not moving. I opened the cover of the decoupler. I tried to pull the filament by hand again, it seemed I was not pulling the filament but the tube, the inside of the decoupler looks fine, nothing is stuck in there.

 

I tried to choose the load filament option but does not see any extrusions.

 

 

Suggestions?  I want to hear some expert opinion before I forcefully remove the printer core and cause damage to the printer. Thanks.

        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
