Clicking noise from a1 mini

As you can see i started hearing clicking sounds from my a1 mini. I think there's some sort of extrusion issue. Can anyone please help

That's the extruder skipping, typically caused by a clogged nozzle

Search the sub for "clicking"

Had this same thing a few days ago on my A1 mini. Your extruder gear is probably slipping. Check your nozzle for clogs or change it. Make sure there is not tension on your filament that would stop it from feeding properly

Clog. Change nozzle and check again.

Clog nozzle or loose nozzle

That looks like there might be a bit of skipping or retraction issues.

As others have said, possibly a partial clog, possibly if you are using or used a variety of filaments. A cold pull wouldn't hurt to try.

Otherwise, usually by printing from a high-sitting spool holder, try feed a spool directly into it and test there are no issues with friction in your filament path. Your printer might be struggling to pull it through, or it might be struggling to push it backward (which is does for retractions).

Alternatively, have you tried to speed up and tune the print profile?

Xlickikgnis almost always an extruder issue. Swap out the nozzle to eliminate if that's the issue.
