Prusa MK3.5 Y axis squeaking

IMG_4221

This mk3.5 barely has a week of print time & the Y axis started to squeak when moving backwards only. I checked all the hardware, belt tension, clean & lubed the rails and everything is fine. Can’t seem to find the solution to the squeak. Bearings should still be good as I have less than 200 hrs on her. (168 to be exact.) Cheers.

RE: Prusa MK3.5 Y axis squeaking

Does the belt move from side to side on the idler, or on the motor toothed pulley? when you move the bed forward and backward?
could the plastic belt adjusters under the heatbed be back to front? 

I try to make safe suggestions,You should understand the context and ensure you are happy that they are safe before attempting to apply my suggestions, what you do, is YOUR responsibility. Location Halifax UK
