Another Layer Shifting Issue

@jay_s_uk original motor part is in og post

Hi .... it also happened to me in a previous printer, I also changed the power supply only to discover that it was a false contact in the motor cables. I changed them directly even if measuring them several times with the tester (at that moment) they were always ok.
Now, I don't know if this could also be your cause but if you think it appropriate you could try it. -

@Turbo yep. missed that.
You could get away increasing the current by another 100ma to 800 for both X and Y.
Rule of thumb is about 80-85% of max current, so at the moment, you are running under that -
@Turbo Listen ... I don't speak English well but I presented you my experience of my case where I wrote that I also did the continuity and isolation tests several times and they were always ok but your case is perhaps different.

@luc Rereading that i see what you mean. I'll look into replacing the cables when i can get some connectors.
-
Bad bearing occasionally sticking? Wiring loom occasionally catching?
I'd say you should watch a print the whole way through to try and catch it in action to see what you can see.

Is it direct drive with no guide tube for the filament?
-
@theruttmeister it is direct drive with a guide tube

@Phaedrux no obvious friction occurring in the rods/bearings, they're also barely a few weeks old from mcmaster so i don't think they're bad. Swapped them just in case. Wiring loom is organized with cable chains, so no chance of that happening. Ive watched 3 1hr prints at 200% speed now with nothing happening. it really just hates me.
