- Cricut Maker Print and cut cannot read sensor marks how to fix. Print and cut error solved.
If you have a warranty on your machine do NOT take it apart or you will void your warranty. There is also the possibility that you are not printing the page correctly, your ink is too light, the sensor is obstructed, or another possibility.
However, sometimes what can happen is a piece of material can bunch up and rub onto the sensor causing a little piece of rubber that directs the light to come unglued and lost. This results in the sensor light spreading out too much and the inability to read the registration marks or to calibrate the print and cut feature. It is not an easy fix , but if you watch some of my videos and are a bit handy you should be able to fix it. My other video shows the in depth disassembly required as well as the symptom.
Since Cricut will not help out of warranty machines, I will. Let me know if you come across any issues and I will do my best to assist you. Alternatively, if you would like me to fix it for you and you can get it to me we may be able to work something out as well.
Here is what the sensor looks like:

Also if you got anything out of my videos please at least "like" them so I know I made the right decision by publicizing this. I started this channel to help others instead of withholding useful information for monetary gain. If you have found my videos useful and would like to support me and it, I really appreciate it and would also be really helpful. Here is a link. Thank you.

Thank you for this video. I just pulled it all apart and put a little rubber on the sensor and light assembled it all back and it works like a charm.
Thank you I just repaired missing sensor pad on my wife,s maker . with the good help from your videos
I don't have a husband to help me with that 😩 but could you tell me if the little black square is glued right in the lower left corner? (min 1:54) what kind of glue you used for? Thank you
YOU'RE A LIFESAVER!!! A few months ago while I was cutting something out a random black piece of plastic came flying out from my cricut and I had tried finding out what it was but I had absolutely no luck until I stumbled upon your video!
THIS HAPPENED TO ME TOO!!! I Have it in the tool dock cuz I was like idk wtf that is but it looks important???
Man, I don't know how to thank you enough, really, thanks man, I highly appreciate your contribution, you've saved me from a big one, I've just fixed my machine because of your help, really, you're the best!!!!
Out of curiosity, was your double tool holder part (the part that clamps the cutting/drawing tools) not moving sideways on the track? That's what happening to my Maker and I'll try this if your issue was the same. Thanks!
@@truthseeker5767 the problem was only the scanner, everything else was working properly before fixing it and after fixing it
Fantastic fault analysis and a brilliant solution.
Thank you!
do you have a video how you took it apart? I still have my little piece that broke off
I have the cricut explorer air 2 and the Lil black thing popped out how to I take apart the housing to fix it?
THANK YOUUUU! ❤️
Consegui me ajudar. A minha explore air 2 só está cortando de um lado 😢 não estou conseguindo manutenção aqui em Goiás
Thanks #10
Thank you! I have the piece that broke off but didn't know what it was until I couldn't print and cut. Have the Explorer 2 so I will try to do this.
Did it work? I also have an explorer
@@arleneoliverascruz9843 I am off today so I am going to try. I will let you know.
I'm curious to know if it worked too. I have the CEA2 and it is still not working.
@Sammantha Avilez honestly I found it too much trying to fix it. I purchased a Maker from a friend who preferred the Cameo.
Would this also fix the no blade detected message ? Our cricut maker is out of warranty and it is not detecting the premium blade , it did detect the rotary blade for some reason , the other thing is the sensor doesn’t light up
could you tell me if the little black square is glued right in the lower left corner? (min 1:54) what kind of glue do you used for it?
This is where it goes and what it "should" look like. I used regular elmers glue.

That is not your problem. Your problem is likely due to one or more of the following: Bad right side motor, Bad or dirty encoder, bad belt, bad gear, bad connection, bad wire or bad main board. The print and cut sensor is only for the print and cut function.
How did you get the piece out of Place?
Did you take a picture of the glued black rubber. Not sure if you need to cover the IC and LED together
Have a look at this video I show the original there. It is on my channel called Cricut print and cut sensor pad supplement.
How did you get underneath , my piece fell out I do have the piece I can probably glue it back if I can get underneath to put it in place
My cricut works but the sensor lines don't get printed. Idk why. Can you help me.
How did you get that part off to look under it to fix that part?? Mine fell off and I'm trying to put it back
It took me 3 hours to pull it apart its not a easy task for a first timer.
It requires a lot of disassembly. It is not easy, but possible. Here is step one. th-cam.com/video/wyUi8AG-vfo/w-d-xo.html then go to step 2 and so on. good luck. Let me know if you figure it out.
I have this problem with my explore air 2. Should this work the same on my machine?
Quite possibly. If the black part for the sensor is missing, then most likely. Way easier on the explore. You should be able to see a small black part where the sensor light is without even taking anything apart. If you don't see it, then my money is that is your problem. Let me know what you find.
@@Idotooby Hello, I have the Explore Air 2. The ability of my machine to detect the print and cut lines is getting worse and worse over time. I've gone through the entire Cricut troubleshooting list. I just took apart the housing for the blades and sensor so I could look at the sensor light. The black piece is there, the sensor light is working (or at least turned on) and not dirty or obstructed. I do see a second round piece which looks like another light but it is not turned on. Should it be? Where should I go from here? Thank you for your help!
Hello! Thank you for the video on fixing the sensor with a flip flop but I cant figure out how to open the housing to acess the sensor LOL
Check out my cricut maker repair disassembly fix. take apart video.
@@Idotooby yeah your video isn't very helpful when it comes to telling how to get the part with the sensor pad off. You stopped before you showed how to get that part off.
Oh wow. umm... your welcome. not sure how to respond when I have given so much free content. Usually when people ask in a polite way I try my best to help. I guess the video didn't help you at all. good luck
But how did you remove the tool system
does tinkering with it void the warranty?
Most likely..?.. I wouldn't risk it. If it is under warranty definitely take advantage of that first.
Hi, can you help me with some of the explore air 2 please
Hi Lovely Craft, I do not own an explore Air 2 so I am unable to complete this request. All of my content is free and my only motive is to help people. Perhaps someday someone will donate one to me and I will create more content. Best of luck.
Tnks 🤗
I have updated with a video of explore air 2 disassembly in case you didn't see it yet.
Thanks for all of your information. The black tab on my explore 2 also came off and I have but don't know how to remove housing not find your video on that, can you help? Thank you so much!
thank you sir
I have a similar machine, but it does not accept correct calibration, as it cuts a small square without accuracy, even if I repeat the calibration more than once. Is this method the solution?
How do you get to that?
Dang it sooooo i followed all direction got it taken apart only to find im not missing that piece and i still wasnt able to cut then print i removed it wiped it down and i still gotta put it back together hoping it will magically fix itself buttttt. Im doubtful what else could be the reason the sensor doesnt sense the cut marks?
Did you find a solution?
Did you fix your problem. Think I have the same
is there a video of taking it apart up until this point?
Yes. Please view my other videos with disassemble or disassembly in the title.
I just bought my machine today and having the same issue.. the helpline spent an hour trying to help and determined that it's a faulty machine and they're sending a new one...now I'm curious if it's the missing piece lol
😂😂😂. Flip flop!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Lol! Life saving flip flop
Now I'm going to have to see if this is my machine's problem... like wtf? The imagine I'm trying is simple!
Just be sure it is not a printing error first.
@@Idotooby I had a person figure it out for me :)
I don't even know how to take it apart?
I just bought this machine 6 hours ago brand new and I think I'm having this issue! Ahhh! 😡😡
Before you even think of removing anything, it should be covered under warranty if it is new from a store. If it is brand new and was factory sealed, chances are it is a printing error, room lighting, or something else like the set up and not the machine itself.
@@Idotooby Yo thanks for your reply! After searching for another 30 mins I found how to fix the issue. It's insane how popular these machines are with these issues right out of the box. Reminds me of the U.S Auto industry. Anyway thanks for your help🙏🏾 , I'll probably be back to this video hopefully not too soon though. Jah Bless!
I have a cricut air explore 2. I bought 2 years ago and have tried everything. I just gave up. I am thinking of just buying a new machine. I've tried everything. I'm so angry.
Yes I empathize, it can be very frustrating. What is the problem with it?
Cricut is GARBAGE.
