Solutions for Cricut Maker Stopped Mid-Cut
Issues Find the solutions below based on why your
Cricut maker stopped cutting in the middle of the
project. Faults in the Power Button A faulty
power button can be unresponsive and blinks
consistently red. In this situation, you can
replace the power button with a new one.
5Corrupted Project When the issue is due to one
corrupted project, all you need to do is
re-create another. Dust or Debris Accumulated on
the Roller Bar First, move ahead by switching the
power off. Move the carriage across the roller
bar 3-4 times manually to clear out any
accumulated debris. Sticking of Mat, Cutting
Material, or Blade Please note that if this
happens with every machine, there are issues with
your Cricut maker machine. You can try these
steps. First, power off your machine and move
the carriage back and forth. Make sure to do it
at least six times. After this, power your device
again and try to use it for the project. Cutting
Tool Having Incorrect Calculator
Dimensions Cricut users can cut thicker materials
like balsa wood and leather with a Knife blade.
If the blade is encountering an issue while
cutting material with thickness or density, you
will see your machine not performing, which can
lead to a blinking red light in the device.
6Cutting Space or Area is Dirty Before beginning
the project, be sure to clear any debris. If you
have issues in the middle of your project, check
for any dirt and remove it by following the
onscreen instructions. Once you are sure there is
no debris, press the cut button again, and you
can resume the cut then. Outdated Firmware When
you find a solid red power button with loadout
white, you need to proceed by doing a firmware
update first. To check whether a firmware update
is required, you can connect your device via
Bluetooth or USB to a computer/laptop they will
tell you if an update is available for your
machine. It should be your job to check that
there is an Internet connection. You cant
download the update correctly without an active
Internet connection. It would help if you tried
another outlet or power strip for a solid red
power button. Unplugged USB Power Source While
the Machine is Performing Machine mats or
materials can cause this problem. To avoid these
issues, make sure to position your power and USB
cables away from the material/mats path.
7Faulty Wall Outlet Proceed by trying to plug the
power cord into a different wall outlet in this
situation. For error-free performance, try to
plug the plug directly into a wall outlet instead
of plugging it into a power strip or surge
protector. Moreover, you can proceed with the
replacement of the power adapter and cord
too. Problems with The Program Detecting the
Blade Tool First, check that the tool installed
in clamp B matches the tool recommended in the
Design space on the load step. You can select
Edit tools to choose a different tool if the
recommended one is unavailable. Dirty Cutting
Tool First, ensure the tool is removed from clamp
B, and the reflective surface on the housing is
cleaned off to come out of the issue. Press the
flashing Go button once you have reinstalled the
tool in Clamp B. Dirty Tool Sensor In such a
situation, remove the tool sensor from Clamp B to
clean it. Again place the tool back into the
Clamp B while ensuring the flashing Go light is
on.
8- Foreign Power Adapter being Used On the Device
- The adapter for the Cricut maker is white if it
is green, there is a chance foreign/divergent
power adapter is being used on the device. Make
sure to use the Cricut power adapter and cord
that came with your device. - Faulty Blade/Cutting Tool
- Use a different adaptive tool knife blade,
rotary blade, or scoring wheel to attempt a test.
If your test is successful, there might be an
issue with the drive housing of the original
tool. - Design Space Malfunction
- To resolve the issue instantly, follow the steps
below. - Uninstall Design Space and then restart your
computer/device. Reboot your Cricut Maker. - Finally, reinstall Design Space and begin with
your project. - Incompatible Materials with Design or Cutting
tool - Try cutting different materials, such as printed
paper, with its appropriate setting. If you dont
get some outcome, there might be an issue with
the input (the material youre trying to cut).
