@jondaniel yes i agree something is wrong with my original wiring. i just recrimped a new cable and thats what that picture is of. Thanks for the config.

@fcwilt Got it! changed Y-10 to Y 1:1:0 and that did it. so im pretty sure what it corresponds to are the 3 motion motors, normally called x y and z and the 1, -1 and 0 are which direction the stepper motor should turn, 1 for forwards ,-1 for backwards and 0 for none. Thanks for the help

OK so i plugged that new harness into the original sensor off this machine and it deploys and retracts with commands!

@phaedrux chrome and Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 Maestro 3.3 (2021-06-15) and dwc 3.3.0

@ashillis mines working fine now wired through my connector all mounted up properly. i wasnt welding anything, all crimped connections. no interference. just shoddy connections preciously

@Phaedrux dont know what m552 s-1 does but ive dont plenty of toggling on and off with s0 and s1 and m587 ive done and redone after updating it with m997 s1

@dc42 just updated to exactly what you linked and same deal. timing out

@dc42 ok now where can i find the iap4e file? why are all these files so badly spread out and not just pre compiled into an sd card image?

@Phaedrux @dc42 just reflashed the wifi and it does the same, just times out again. here are m122 result and config.gm122 result.txt config.g

@Phaedrux @dc42 well i now unhooked everything else from the board and tried a different sd card and now wifi just times out even when used plugged into usb

@dc42 is there somewhere i can supply 3.3v rail if its dead? i am using an atx psu so i have it all .

@dc42 3.3 led brightness doesnt change from either power source

@Phaedrux years old at this point and i think i got it from filastruder

@Phaedrux ugh man how tf does stuff like this go bad? i am so sick of these boards. why the hell are they so expensive when they are so fragile like this, i shouldve gone with klipper

@Phaedrux no not a new board, yes the 5v lights up when powered from psu. no i hooked up everything. also my biqu tft isnt connecting to the board even though it is powered
