I tested Driver 0 with a spare stepper I have that's not attached to anything, completely resistance-free. I still get the same result. If I tell the stepper to go right, it goes right. If it tell it to go left, it still goes right.
I know my spare stepper is good because I tested it with my old MKS Gen L.

I bought it from Filastruder on Dec 13 2021.
Alright so I cannot find my multimeter, so I am unable to check the output of the dir pin.
My issue still stands though, driver 0 seems to have developed a fault that I cannot resolve.
May I request a warranty replacement?
@alankilian For sure, I'll gladly check that when I get home Tuesday. That would be fairly interesting to me too, I didn't even think to check that.
@fcwilt Yes, I used an entirely different spare stepper I have attached to driver 0 and I'm still getting the same problem.
After further testing and troubleshooting, I am still unable to fix the issue.
I am currently back to using a single z axiz motor, but I'd like to be able to use both.
@phaedrux
I'm using the DWC dashboard to command movement. I've also tried G1, stepper still moves in one direction even if I tell it to go in the other direction; it's very strange.
Yes, I had it mapped as the extruder, just so I could use Extrude/Retract to easily move the stepper to test the functionality of driver 0.
I'll also mention that I've been using this same dual-z setup for a few days now with no problems whatsoever.
Also, sorry, I don't know why I didn't think to include my original config. Here it is:

Hello, during an overnight print my print failed. Upon homing to restart the print I noticed my right Z axis was grinding. I rechecked my config and everything looked correct. In an attempt to troubleshoot I attached driver 0 to a spare stepper I have and noticed it only goes in one direction whether or not I try to move it + or -. I mean to say it moves as if I pressed + whether I press + or -.
I've performed all the troubleshooting I can think of and I cannot identify or resolve the issue.
I've reinstalled firmware, done a full power cycle, upgraded to beta, and checked for loose/damaged/corroded wiring.
Here is the result of M122:
