After printing the enclosure for Adventurer 5M I hit the infamous problem of filament sensor which is not working in reverse direction.

I disassembled the sensor to figure out why this is happening.

It turned out, that the metal bracket won't let filament pass in reverse direction because of the edge being too steep. So my idea was to make the “reverse” direction slope more gentle. See the photo attached.

This model is the replacement for the original metal bracket.

Be careful when disassembling the filament sensor, don't lose a pin and a spring.
