So. I have an XL that was upgraded from a regular, and have been using it regularly for a couple of months. I haven’t used it these past couple of weeks though. Went to fire it up to make some gifts, and behold a big problem. Started to jog the gantry and then the RY made a horrible noise as it was moving. Almost like a grinding noise, and it seemed to lag behind the LY. After checking and finding no obstructions, I took off the belt. Still made the noise just free spinning, and I could stop the motor shaft from moving with just my fingers. I thought, something must be wrong with the motor. But then after swapping the Y motor plugs on the board, the LY motor then did it. So. It isn’t the motors. Is it the RY motor driver having a problem? I have a 2.2 version board and haven’t made any changes since using it last. I use Universal Gcode sender 1.0.9. I then tried the 2.0 UGS and same thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Guess that what I get for waiting till the last minute to make gifts. Thanks guys! Jere
