Creality hi info

80% of the time, the extruder is the problem with the Creality Hi. For all beginners who decided to buy this printer, the first thing you should do is print a new cover and a cable chain, and immediately remove that small plastic part from the extruder.
I’ve had the printer for half a year and couldn’t figure out why the filament wasn’t feeding through the extruder. But when I removed that part, thankfully, it started working like new!

I had taken the extruder apart probably 1,000 times, and every time I cleaned it and put it back together, but the filament still wouldn’t pass through to the nozzle. That was the problem.
I recommend printing a new head because the original one from Creality is way too tight, and the small cables suffer because they don’t have enough room.
I downloaded the model from Printables 😀

Hi, I’m having a strange issue with my Creality Hi.

Some days it works completely fine, but other times it starts throwing random errors. I even tried unplugging it from power for a full day, and after turning it back on everything was working normally again.

However, today I got an error right at startup. The printer’s menu was completely frozen and I couldn’t do anything. But when I opened the Creality Cloud app on my phone and tried changing temperatures from there, the printer responded normally — almost like it “woke up.” After that, the menu on the printer started working again too.

This behavior feels really weird and inconsistent.

Has anyone experienced something similar or knows what could be causing this?
