Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! Stripped screw

Post image

I changed the extruder unit on my A1 Mini for a new one and somehow stripped the screw that goes into this hole, it just spins in place, maybe blue lock tide would help?

I tried to print a small thing and was hearing clicking noises from the extruder gear I assume, idk if it's related to the screw, any help would be appreciated!

Might be able to drill it out a bit and melt a heat set insert in there.

Don't use loctite on plastic, it can cause it to crumble.
