Extruder stepper not turning
-
@doccox Yes of course I heated up the extruder that 1st time. The "Extrude" button is disabled prior to heating up anyways.
-
@dc42 Yes, I saw this in another similar thread. I was about to try this then I tried swapping the X axis stepper into the E0 connector. and the stepper (the X axis) worked for 1 try. Then started again. I also am now seeing weirds stuff happening in the X and Y steppers. They are acting like they're getting completely incorrect voltages and are reversed.
Is it possible that the config is somehow corrupted? -
Seems OK to me...

@andy-cohen, I suggest you run M122 after seeing these issues, and check the report for under voltage events.
-
@dc42 Seems it continues to deteriorate. Now when I try to move the Y axis the carriage moves in X even though the Y cables are in the Y connector.
Seems to me this board is defective. I'll contact the reseller Monday AM.
Doesn't Duet3D do burn ins??? If they did this would have showed up.

Check the SD card. If the contents are not being read correctly from the SD card, your configuration will not be used. Your printer is a corexy, correct? That could explain why X/Y motors are getting activated at the incorrect times. A default cartesian config would not work well for your machine.
I've heard sometimes that the cheap SD cards that ship with the duets can fail. Try a different SD card, or verify first that it is being read at all. What's the name of the printer on the paneldue/DWC? If the config is not being read, the name will be "My Duet" or something like that.

@bot I pulled the sd card and looked at it on my Mac. Looks fine; reads and writes fine. Although your guess was a good one. It would explain quite a bit. When the X stepper does move it's a LOT harsher as though it's getting way too much power.
Examined the board carefully and there's zero marks anywhere from arcing or scorching. No smell at all. So no bridging or shorting. You would think that a fail within like this would brick it.
Is there some way of doing a hard reset?
-
Even though you can read the SD card on your mac or pc, there have been reported times where the SD card is still not readable by the Duet. Usually, IIRC, this was solved by using a different SD card. Sometimes it was fixed by formatting the sd card as fat 32 and starting over, and other times, more rarely, the sd card socket itself became faulty.
Can you inser the SD card into the duet and verify via the web control or PanelDue if the SD config is being loaded properly? The easiest way is to check the machine name.

Can you post some more details?
What firmware version? Board version?
Entire config.g?
Results of M122? -
@bot It's using the correct name I gave it in the config file. Whats interesting is now I am getting the dialog you see in the attached.
