Ok so when I go to print something everything works great and the extruder moves in the shape of the object and rises after every layer as it should but theres no filament coming out.

I also have this issue, but my extruder stepper is operating backwards, pulls the filament out instead of pushing it through. I even reversed the connections in the plug per advice from another forum, but it still operates backward.

And you tried reversing the connections on the ramps board?Quote

I think they're both using slic3r. don't even need to put the filament in I can watch it turn the wrong way

I didn't reverse the connection because it would still be wrong. and it is connected to the correct driver, it's working now but was working a few minute ago and "flipped" again mid print

I also have this happening with my newly-built Geeetech i3B kit. It all works fine for a few layers, and then suddenly the extruder begins to make a clicking sound and pushes filament back out the top instead of pulling it in; the extruder motor seems to change direction mid-print. If I fully remove the filament, I can see that the end is slightly enlarged. Cutting off this slight enlargement, and re-feeding the filament brings me back to an operational state, but not for very long before this issue reoccurs.
The printer is using a shangualolou (or some such spelling) controller board, and Repetier-host V0.90D software. I'm not sure if this is right, but the software reports it as having Marlin firmware 1.0
can anyone tell me how to get this thing to stop reversing the extruder motor please?

I bought the printer as a kit, and the extruder has a fan and a heat-sink, so I would assume that cooling is adequate but cannot be 100% certain.
Here is a video demonstrating the issue: [youtu.be]
