[The Mandalorian] How does an energy weapon jam?

In the finale, there's like half a scene dedicated to one of the protagonists having her gun jam. It's an energy weapon that uses no bullets. How did it jam?

There are far fewer moving parts in a blaster than in a firearm, but there are still a few components that can get out of whack. That, and "jammed" may be used generically for weapons malfunctions even if there aren't literally parts jammed in the wrong place, similar to how modern digital albums have a "track list" even though they no longer have physical tracks, or how save icons are patterned after discs that are no longer in active use.
