Z-axis motors moving erratically
I bought and assembled a Prusa i3 original in February of this year and it has been working perfectly up to now. However the z-axis stepper motors have begun to act erratically.
One motor seems to be working fine. The other motor sometimes moves opposite of the intended direction and behaves very strangely as it binds against the other motor. I have tried resetting the board, this helps sometimes but then the error happens again. Also, I have switched the import ports of the steppers on the main board to see if its an issue with a connection, but the issue is continuing with the same motor. I have a feeling it could be an issue with the main board with cross-talk occurring between the steppers.
Has anybody else experienced similar issues with this product?
