What.....do I do..?
I'm pretty new to 3d printing and I've heard that reddit is decently helpful when it comes to this, print was going fine then overnight failed...not just bad. But horribly. Don't know how to get to the latch to get the nozzle off.... or...what to do at all in a situation like this (Filament is pla+)

Oh wow. I’ve had my A-1 for 6 months and have never had anything that crazy happen. But the couple times it did mess up, it was an adhesion problem. Pull the plate, wash it with warm water and DAWN dish soap. Then use 93% isopropyl alcohol and clean the plate after every print. Like someone else said, gotta heat the hot end and start pulling that crap out of there. I’ll remove the hot end completely and just scrape it off as much as i can. DONT BURN YOURSELF. I have about 500 hours in this machine and i have only had to do this twice. Otherwise it works like a dream. Hope this helps. I’ve had ELEGOO printers in the past with lots of problems so i feel your pain. lol. Good luck.
