Newbie: New Install on Ender 5 Plus---Willing to PAY$$$

@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
-
Also, anyway of using the stock screen with the new Beta RR firmware? I saw it now supports 2 other screens. I dont know what chipset the stock screen has
