Y Axis - Tension trouble
Hello,
I have a problem with my Y-Axis. When I do the belt test the X-Axis is fine, but my Y-Axis no matter in what position gives me trouble.
I lowered the tension in the Y-Axis to the point where it was too loose but then I could start to finish the belt test with 173 to 180. But the belt GT2 shows that it is below the minimum tension.
Things I tried to remove the problem:

- https://help.prusa3d.com/article/crash-detection_2100
Any advise on how I can solve the problem?
Thanks.

RE: Y Axis - Tension trouble
If your printer has had significant use, there is a chance it's bearing wear. I believe most lulzbot printers have plastic bearings that eventually wear out and start to have a bit of play and wobble in them. Make sure your bearings are in decent condition and don't wobble at all.
