First print - Filament motor going in the opposite direction

Hi, I was just trying to do my first print but i cannon load the filament because the motor it's going in the opposite direction... I wonder if there is any mistake in the construction that I cannot find... to me looks everything as it should be...
Looking forward for some help!
Many thanks
Francesco

Hi Francesco

The E (extruder) motor moving in reverse would be a sign that the connector is inserted wrong way around in the RAMBo or that the motor cables have been assembled in the connector incorrectly.

Check the order of the coloured wires at the RAMBo end to ensure they are the same as the other motor wires.
