      are you sure the specs are correct? 2.4Ohm vs 1.5Ohm

      if you are sure that it is correct. adjust the motor current to 85% or the rated current(1.7A). you currently run them at 800mA

        I tested then on the wire end. without the wire it's 1.9-2.0 ohm

        I am trying to understand what file do i need for the firmware update: is it Duet2Firmware-2.03.zip or Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin ?

        Thanks for the help

          you will need to update the wifi firmware and the dwc as well.

            Current is now 1.4A

            Nothing changed 😞

            Any other direction ?

            Thanks again, Yaniv

              does the messages appear as soon as you move anything. or sometime in between?
              does it repeat?

                The messages appear as soon as i move X or Y and it repeats forever (every 5 seconds)

                  possibilities.

                  • you damaged the driver by having a short circuit in your stepper motor wiring.
                  • drivers failed during the first few hours of use for no apparent reason. (unlikely to happen to all drivers at the same time)
                  • your wiring is incorrect. bad crimp. phases not connected correctly.

                  maybe dc42 can weigh in on this.

                    Same motors with the same wiring works on driver 2,
                    I connected the Z motor (the one that always worked) to E2 just to check and it had the same behavior from the first try.
                    This is the first time i use the board not hours, seconds...

                    Thanks, Yaniv

                      Something clearly isn't right. Please ask your supplier to replace your Duet. If it's a genuine UK-manufactured one, https://www.duet3d.com/warranty.
