      Hi all,

      yesterday, I turned on my printer (duetWifi board) and the Z axis stepper started clicking and apparently going only one direction (downwards). The printer was perfectly fine, the only thing I modified was a fan that I have attached (which is working fine). Anything else is working as expected. What should I look into to debug this issue?

      Thanks!

        In decreasing order of probability, I suspect either bad crimp connection in the cable, a failed driver chip, or a failed motor.
