I cannot get my Y axis to pass ..

I have tightened and tightened the belt and greased the rods.. I am on Firmware 6.0.3 and haven't been able to print for a week or 2, first it was the first layer calibrations (which I still can't get to work) so I reset to factory settings, and since then my Y won't pass, so I can 't even get the first layer test going. I could really use some help, this isn't my wheelhouse.

Slacken off completely and, with power off, check the Y carriage mooves smoothly by hand.

Check the Y belt idler is not clogged, out of line or damaged.

With the belt loose try turning the stepper motor by hand; is it smooth?  You should feel the steps but no grating.

Cheerio,
