Belt tension - different results with old and new method (MK3S+)

Hello everybody,

I hear a noise in one end (appr. last 5 cm) of my y axis of my MK3S+, that's why I checked the belt tension. Unfortunately I got different values with the old and new method:

Old method (running belt test from LCD menu):

x: 243 --> too tight

y: 265 --> ok (in direction to tight)

New method (belt tuner app):

x: 96 Hz --> just right

y: 93 Hz --> too loose

Which one is the more correct one?

 

BR

Oliver

Of all the methods I actually found the use of the belt tension gauge https://www.printables.com/model/46639 the most reliable.
