MMU2s selector stepper not moving at all and flashing mmu2 impossible

Hello all, herer are the troubles I have with my mmu2:

I managed to print some small files with 3 colors, then started to have difficulties with a bigger one, the famous stripped lizard:

  • inversions of colors on some layers,
  • multiple "mmu2 needs your attention" error until I finaly restarted the printer

I checked all the filaments and the pinda, everything is fine but the selector engine was not moving at all anymore., then I realized that on of the cables of the pinda was broken on the pin, I soldered it back, but still no selector move:

  • the mmu2 starts, the idler stepper motor moves, but not the selector one at start
  • the selector stepper is blocked when powered but free to move when the printer is off
  • if I change the filament manually by pressing one of the mmu2 button, I have the 5 leds blinking red
  • I tried to flash the mmu2 with the firmware (though I was using the latest one (1-0-5) but I have 2 types of error on my linux with slic3r 1.42.0.beta2:
    • "avrdude-slic3r: ser_open(): can't open device "/dev/ttyACM0": Permission denied avrdude-slic3r: Could not open port: /dev/ttyACM0
    • "Error: open: Device or resource busy"

I have no idea what to do now:

  • could I invert the stepepr motors on the mmu2 card to check if it's a stepper problem or a card one ?
  • how can I flash the mmu2 ?

Thanks for your answers

Update: I ran slic3r with sudo for the permission problem, the flash failed but after a longer time and here is the log:

RE: MMU2s selector stepper not moving at all and flashing mmu2 impossible

The error message can have two reasons:

1. The port is already in use. Do you have any other software running which might use the port?

2. The user has no rigths to access the port.

I finaly managed to flash the MMU2 board thanks to a post here. But it did'nt solve my othe problem:

The selector stepper is not moving at all for a week now, neither at start, nor if I press the buttons to change filament manualy.

RE: MMU2s selector stepper not moving at all and flashing mmu2 impossible

Sounds like you are using Linux. I ran into the same issue as your second problem. There is a simple fix, but it sounds like you already found and got past that.

According to the manual the selector will not attempt to move at start up (in the event that there is filament in it already, though I don't know why it can't check the FINDA for that...).

I had similar issues when I first connected mine up and no matter what I did it wouldn't move at all. What finally worked for me was to connect to the printers serial port (screen /dev/ttyACM0 11520) and I issued the T0, T1, T2, T3, and T4 commands a few times to get the selector moving and it's mostly been OK since then.

If you can't get it to move that way, I'd suggest double checking your connections to make sure it is plugged into the board and the board is plugged into the Rambo securely. Next up, unbolt the motor and pull it free to make sure that the selector itself isn't seized up on a piece of filament or the blade hasn't come loose and bound things up.
