      Hey O Everyone,

      I've been having trouble with my CNC, thought I'd finally got it fixed after the blown board fiasco. I was just about to start sorting out my spoil-board when the X-axis started to skip. I saw that one of my end-stops on the Z-axis was been pulled so I the CNC and took the X/Z-axis apar.t I didn't see much of note other than the wires been a bit long so I tapped them down. I put the housing back together then homed the machine. everything worked as expected except X it sounded stiff and it slammed into the Y beam it wasn't going any faster than the other two but it was a noticeable bang. I checked over the machine and repaired one of the end-stop that got a bit bent. Checked they worked then moved to check the axis just for good measure. Y and Z worked fine exactly like there supposed to but X has now become confused it's a 50/50 chance now if it decides to go one way or the other. I don't think this is a wiring issue as all I've done is tape the wires to the end-stops down and they're registering as working and I've not meddled with any of the other wires on the machine.
      I've uploaded what should be the config.g file for the device. In truth, I'm using a 1500x1500 Buffalow CNC with Ooznest firmware and an Ooznest Duet Ethernet Board. Any helps appreciated as at this stage my only go-to idea is to re-upload the config files and see if that fixes anything. Also before my trials with it this weekend, the machines had been accepting commands, even got a pattern working off Fusion 360 the other weekend.

        Can you post your homing files as well? It sounds like it's moving the wrong direction on X during homing? Or did I read wrong?

          @phaedrux At the moment I'm using jog commands and it just can't seem to make up its mind which way it's supposed to go one moment it'll go right next it'll go left. I just tried homing it since you mentioned it and the console read "G28x phase B motor maybe disconnect." That dissapeared though replaced with M112 M999 Homing Failed. It also moved left to home which isn't correct on this machine it should be right for home though I only tested this twice, I'll add that the screw sounds strained.
          here are some attached files from the console I've added config.g file again just in case it's different though it shouldn't be.

          workzero Note Pad.txt homez Note Pad.txt homey Note Pad.txt homex Note Pad.txt homedelta Note Pad.txt homeall Note Pad.txt customconfig Note Pad.txt config.g Note Pad Bak file.txt Config Note Pad.txt

            @wiltonio said in CNC X-axis confused:

            I think you have a bad motor connection. So double check your wiring and crimps before doing any more movement to prevent damage to the driver.
