      I am installing a Maestro on my Prusa Clone.
      The stepper motor wires on both ends for the clone are blue, red, green black except the extruder motor which is blue, green, red, black.

      The colors on the maestro board are Red, Blue, Green, Black, at all of the board connectors
      Should I switch the wires on the connectors to the motors?
      The wire bundle is the flat 4 strand and is in the color codes above.
      Now I see wires with the Red, Blue, Green Black pattern for sale on Amazon,
      Is there any reason to swap?

        @san-juan There's no standard on wire colors. Use a multimeter to find the coils and wire appropriately.
