Curious motor issue.
-
The other night I grabbed a pancake stepper out of my stepper drawer for an extruder on a printer I'm building. Whenever I try and move it it just sits and vibrates. Ohmed out the cable/motor at the board end connector and it ohmed good. Tried my troubleshooting cable anyhow and it still just vibrated. Tried moving it to a different driver, the same. Grabbed a different stepper out of the drawer and it ran fine on both drivers. Grabbed my Megger and Megged out the pancake. Checked coil ohms compared to other steppers in drawer. Everything seems ok. I don't need the motor as I have plenty just a curious mystery. Any ideas?

@breed have you checked the phases are connected correctly some steppers need the middle two wires crossed over?
