MK4/XL Loadcell
The load cell is a precision strain gauge sensor that measures the deflection of the heatsink. A '100%' reading implies the sensor is reporting maximum force, usually caused by an internal fracture in the gauge material or a short in the bridge circuit. This component is the primary failure point for force-sensing errors.

LoveBoard
The LoveBoard acts as the localized signal interface for the extruder. If the amplification circuit or the connector pins for the load cell signal are damaged or contaminated with conductive debris, it can result in a railed signal that the firmware interprets as 100% load.

Nextruder Heatsink
The load cell is physically mounted to the heatsink. If the heatsink is improperly seated or if there is mechanical binding between the heatsink and the extruder frame, it can create a constant mechanical preload that prevents the load cell from returning to a zero-state.
