  1. Pause and prepare the printer

    Allow hot end to cool completely before handling filament to prevent burns
  2. Open the AMS unit

  3. Inspect the filament spool

  4. Untangle the filament

    Handle filament gently to avoid creating kinks or stress fractures

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes filament to tangle in the Bambu Lab AMS?
Filament tangles typically occur when the filament is improperly wound on the spool, when loose coils slip under other wraps, or when the spool is dropped or handled roughly during storage.
Can I prevent Bambu Lab HMS error 0300_2 from happening again?
Yes, store filament spools properly, check for loose coils before loading, use high-quality filament with consistent winding, and avoid moving the AMS while it's feeding filament.
Is it safe to manually pull tangled filament through the AMS?
Only apply gentle tension when untangling. Excessive force can damage the filament or AMS mechanism. If filament won't move easily, trace the tangle back to its source and fix it at the spool.
How do I know if the PTFE tube needs replacement?
Replace the PTFE tube if you notice visible damage, cracks, severe wear, or if filament consistently jams even after cleaning. The tube should allow smooth filament movement without resistance.
What should I do if the error code appears immediately after loading new filament?
Check the filament spool winding quality, ensure proper insertion into the AMS slot, and verify the filament diameter matches your printer settings. Some third-party filaments may have inconsistent winding.
