Filament Load/Unload Features Running Backwards

I replaced the x axis motor on my Prusa Mini this afternoon (previous one broke during transit - has been replaced with an official Prusa x axis stepper motor).

I was attempting to recalibrate the printer when I tried to load filament into the printer, it would not grab hold of the filament unless I selected retry, which rammed the filament up to the point of the extruder and no further, when attempting to purge the filament it would pull itself back out of the printer.

The load operation seems to unload filament and vice versa, any ideas on how to fix this?

or maybe cable inserted in the board is reversed?

See my GitHub and printables.com for some 3d stuff that you may like.
