@whosrdaddy done that but it didnt helpconfig.g

i'd start by going over everything that is needed to make the printer home correctly.

this is for the maestro board, but most of it applies to the wifi as well

steps 3 through 6 should help.

@bearer i will try, thanks

printingmark

for the moment all is working, thank you verry much all for the help

@printingmark @whosrdaddy If memory serves me well, 1000 mA is too much for the Ender's stock motors.
I have the following currents: X/Y/Z=725 mA, extruder=850 mA.
That's within the motor's specifications (around 80-85% of max current, I believe), and works well.

if i'm not mistaken, the Ender 3 motors are rated for 1300ma and the extruder 1700ma, so 1000 and 1300 (a bit under 80%) should be no problem.Offcourse, if it works with lower currents, that's even better

@whosrdaddy: Unfortunately I don't have any kind of official documentation about the Ender 3's steppers. The source I'm working from is this: https://gist.github.com/knoopx/e6c40a009e796203b93a75a3ed6a5ab8
Those currents work, and the steppers don't get too hot, so I'm happy.

But if anyone has other, more official sources, I'd be interested.

this morning it started all over again,repeated all stps no succes

config.json

Can you share the config.g file instead please? The config.json is generated from the RRF config tool and then not adjusted again.
Can you also supply your homeall, homex, homey and homez files?

homez.g homey.g homex.g homeall.g config.g

@printingmark if it’s not homing to the right place, are you sure your Endstops are plugged in correctly? Sounds like X and Y may be swapped.

@droftarts i will check thanks

printingmark

@droftarts you where on the right track,one of the endstops was broken i saw movement in it while checking te connection
thank you

@printingmark Mark, I would suggest that you look at the following

M566 X1200.00 Y1200.00 Z24.00 E300.00 ; set maximum instantaneous speed changes (mm/min)
M203 X30000.00 Y30000.00 Z300.00 E1500.00 ; set maximum speeds (mm/min)
M201 X500.00 Y500.00 Z100.00 E5000.00 ; set accelerations (mm/s^2)

I beg anyone to please insure that I am giving the correct information and help for him. I am very new the REPRAP Firmware. Mark, please change that code listed above thats in your config.g file to the following

M566 X600.00 Y600.00 Z12.00 E150.00 ; set maximum instantaneous speed changes (mm/min)
M203 X3000.00 Y3000.00 Z30.00 E150.00 ; set maximum speeds (mm/min)
M201 X500.00 Y500.00 Z100.00 E500.00 ; set accelerations (mm/s^2)

The way you described your problem makes me feel like your stepper motors are skipping big time. I had this very same issue and I had to basically lower all those values down to almost nothing. After changing those valves listed above, my printer started to work like a champ. Produced some nice prints.

I own a Tevo Black Widow. I know you said you own an Ender 3. Those numbers I listed above for you to change will not hurt anything at all. But you can play with them so they fit your printer. I am only suggesting those numbers as a guideline to start at.

Keep us posted on your success.
