View submission: HELP! P1S Filament Cutter problem.
So I can see one fault: the lever is not pushed in far enough for the magnet from the lever to come close to the sensor. This means that the printer doesn't even notice that the filament has been cut or that the lever has moved. This is probably why it tries three times. This has nothing to do with the housing jumping off, but is something jammed? Can you move the lever?
Actually, the head should be driving on the left side towards a "stud". Somehow I don't see the part on your video? Is that missing? That could also explain why the lever is not pressed. Sorry for the bad photo. There must be a plastic piece, I don't see that in your video.

From your vid: I can't see this very well, but is the plastic that the lever is supposed to hit being bent and ramming against the housing and pushing it away?

You're absolutely right.. I'm currently uploading a video of what happens from the top view. I am new to posting here so it will be a link for an unlisted YouTube Short. It's taking forever to upload.
But you can clearly see, as the print head approaches from the back, it pushes the lever out of the way and just tries to drive inwards. I'll post the link next.
