I sent a message to them on Friday, March 11th and I have not received a response.
I had already reached out to them for a previous issue and unfortunately replacing the recommended part did not work.
I’m going on TWO weeks without my glowforge and very little assistance from customer support.
Email or phone are your only options.
A week or more for a response appears to be typical these days.

It’s really not a process suitable for the average consumer, but it’s their cheapest option to try before having to replace the machine.
