Exturder Motor Not Working
My extruder motor won't work I'm trying to figure out why. My printer got a clog so I took the extruder apart to get it out, but ever since my extruder motor won't move. I've checked the physical motor by swapping it to the Y port and it would spin there. I also tired to put the y motor in the extruder port and it wouldn't move. I've looked at the Extuder's port and it looks fine, I'm not sure how I would have damaged it. If anyone has any advice on how to fix the problem it would be greatly appreciated.
Re: Exturder Motor Not Working
As I understand you have shown its not the motor itself. I would start with the connection at the extruder motor and follow the wires back to the board. Magnifying glass helps. Pay special attention to the places where the zip ties squeeze the wires.
Also you could try using a mutimeter on both ends of the wire harness to test for continuity while gently bending and moving the wires.
