. Its random in which direction it goes to home and it just slams at the end of each axis.
i have never heard of this happening.
let me get this straight.
you home your printer. it moves to the right?
you restart the printer it moves to the left?post the output of M119 when no endstop is pressed.
post the output of M119 when only the enstop for the x axis is pressed -
@Veti
When I turn it on, nothing moves unless i press the home button. There is no telling which direction it will go if i center the extruder in the middle of the area. Where am I supposed to set the hotend before I turn on the printer? -
@shatty
please test the stepper motor direction using this

Heres a video of what it does....

please do the testing from the webui to rule out a bad touch screen connection.
-
btw what is that strange sound at the start of the homing?

TS is fine.
Anyways....hitting any positive value will move each toward the endstop switch...The Z is not right..Looks like they are fighting each other

The Z axis motors are fighting each other.

that would indicate that your motors are turning in the wrong direction.
-
@Veti
OK Let me fix that. -

that means on of your motors is wired in the opposite direction

i beg to differ. The bad command 55 at the end is an indication.
-
@Veti Thats because I hit stop
Not the motors are moving away from endstops with hitting the positive values. Z still fighting each other. They are in series config because there are 2 on 1 driver
-
Paneldue5i is connected with ribbon cable only. How can it be wrong?

that mean you have to reverse the wiring of one of your stepper motors
-
@Veti
OK. TY. Hopefully I can gain progress now. -
Z wired right. Only thing is...small little problem....THE WIRE IS CUT!!! THRU 3 OF THE 4 WIRES ON ONE OF THE Z STEPPERS!!!!!
-
Luckily MicroCenter doesnt sell them. F me. They sell a bunch of Creality replacement parts. 10 min from me. Amazon it is. Ugh
I could repair it but its a new machine and i dont want to.
-
where is the wire cut?
-
@Veti Dead center LOL.
I wish they has a motor upgrade pack for this printer instead of buying them individually. I want .9 motors
I can have the new wires here by tomorrow, Sunday
