Z Axis dead
I put together the MK3S kit, and looked forward to starting printing. It went thru the self calibration steps and the first layer calibration. Then the z axis stopped working. I checked the connectors, reset the controls, and retried calibration. It calibrated x and y, but Z was dead. Following other posts, I tried loosening the hex nuts, and actually disconnected the print sled to remove all load on the motors, but the z motors did not turn at all. Help!!
Thank you! I enjoyed putting together the kit, since it gave me ideas on how to design and incorporate fasteners in 3D prints.

Your best solution is chat with support. You may have blown the stepper driver.
Click EShop at the top, log in, then a Chat button will be in the lower right.
Chat is pretty good. Don't bother EMailing them though.
