SOLUTION
Your build plate might be so close to the extruder that it is
preventing plastic from coming out of the nozzle. Tighten
each knob on the bottom of the build plate by a quarter
turn to move the platform farther from the extruder nozzle.
Extrusion could also stop if your MakerBot PLA filament has
been kept heated for too long. Unload the filament, cut a
fresh edge, and load the filament again.
