G1888 sampling probe lifter
Recently we have been experiencing a weird issue with the autosampler's sample probe lifter. Now every time when we ran the samples, the vials were taken into the carousel fine, but after sampling probe was injected into the vial cap, the sampling probe couldn't completely retract back to its original position and still connect with the vial, blocking the rotation of the carousel, sample vials stuck inside and the sequence stopped. I tried to reset the autosampler, but the sampling probe still stick out.
Have some had the same issue before and can give some advise?
Thanks!
