Do you have an updated guide for replacing the thermistor?  My MK3S doesn't look much like this illustration/photo.  The extruder looks different, as mentioned in the previous comment the unit uses split wrap not spiral, the tywraps are in different locations.  In short this isn't much help.   I also (after loosening the screw) cannot get the thermistor free from the heater block, despite pushing on it with the hex key and the tip of a pair of needle nose pliers.

Hi! Unfortunately, we do not have a newer guide. It should be available in the future, though.

The MK3/S is split wrap, not spiral.It is best to undo the screws on the side of the plug the wires go through.
