Swapping Y-Axis Motor Drivers

The following test will help determine the source of Y-axis motor issues. 

Instructions: 

1. Remove the stepper drivers (outlined below in yellow), and replace each one on the opposite side of its original position.

2. Using the Viki controller to move the Y-axis, select  "Prepare" > "Move Axis" > "Move Y."

3. Observe the motors to determine whether the issue stems from either driver, or the motor itself. 

  • If the motor on the same side is still presenting with issues, the motor will likely need to be replaced. 
  • If the motor on the opposite side is presenting with the same issue previously observed on the original side, the stepper driver will likely need to be replaced
