bontech bmg-x2 motors just buzz

I was wondering if you could help me I have been having some troubles getting the extruder motors to rotate. Any advice is appreciated.
I have the wiring as follows
Motor Board
A+ to 2B
A- to 2A
B+ to 1A
B- to 1Band my config.g is as follows

Are the heaters hot, and/or have you enabled cold extrude?
Also, you have a T0 in config.g, which is fine. Only that motor will move. (until you do a T1).
And, have you checked wiring, per: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Choosing_and_connecting_stepper_motors#Section_Identifying_the_stepper_motor_phases

In addition to what @Danal has said, the extruder motor currents look too high but it depends on the stepper motors you are using. If you are using ones supplied by Bondtech, then the maximum rated current is 700mA and you ought to run at about 85% of this so say 600mA and not 1000mA.

Yes I have the heaters warmed up.

Try and swap any two of the four leads in the wires. I usually swap the middle 2.
Buzzing motors usually mean the coils are connected the wrong way -
So it was a combination of to high amperage and the wiring. All is working the drawling that bondtech has on the site for the motor is in correct for the wiring. Used the link above and got it wires correctly. This bmg-x2-m prints awesome never had to cut extrusion down to 75% to keep from over extruding.
