Ok i did the test you asked and did the commands thru the gcode console and with tool 0 on drive 0 selected when i give the G1 E20 F5 command i get a slight twitch on the motor shaft but the shaft spins freely with little to no resistance on the shaft i switched the motor cable to the drive 1 and set my config_g to use tool 0 drive one and with tool 0 drive one selected given the G1 E20 F5 command the motor moves as it should 5mm per sec and extrude 20mm of filament i issued a M302 P1 command before each test of the motor i ran the M906 command on with the tool 0 drive 0 selected and this is what i got
6:00:27 PMM906
Motor current (mA) - X:800, Y:800, Z:800, E:800:800:800:800:800:800:800, idle factor 30%

RE: Duet not extruding on x axis and panel due has no screen
No I did not send the to command before as I was using the web sever and switching my config_g between t0 and t1 but I will send it thru the gcode console and see if it moves and no I have not run the m906 either as I will try that but I did not feel any stiffness in the motor shaft that indicates current flow I get a faint twitch on the shaft but it can spin easily with my finger tips but I will test now thru the console and with the t0 and the m906 and see if it changes things

RE: Duet not extruding on x axis and panel due has no screen
sorry for the delay in response Dc as i was at work but the way i tested the motors is as follows : i placed the motor on the base of the printer then ran a motor wire straight to the duet board loaded up the duet web page and sent an M302 P1 command to let me cold extrude then tried to extruded on the motor . i tried two small cables i have made then i received the premade motor cables i ordered when i got home and retried the test with new cable and both motors and still nothing i uploaded 2 photos to my google drive to show how i have the motors the pics are labeled motor test 1 and motor test 2 just to give you a better visual . i also tried the motor i have currently mounted and the new able i re ran thru the cable chain and still nothing this is the link to the photos and a copy of my config_g it seems correct to me but would definitely make me happy for you to look at it as i am no professional at this and i know i say it a lot but thank you and i am really sorry for all the trouble i know this has been a bit of a pain so thank you .

RE: Duet not extruding on x axis and panel due has no screen
I did on two different motors when I started having the extrusion issue I purchased two new motors one as a replacement and one just for a spare I've tried all 3 motors and it will not move any of them and they all work on the e1 port I removed the board from the printer and checked to see if there were any wire strands resting on it but it's clean it's mounted to a melamine board with small deriln plastic standoffs I inspected the board for any noticeable marks scratches or burn spots and it appears to be clean I rechecked all motors after I mounted up the board again and replugged everything back up to the duet and again all three motors operate on e1 and not on e0

RE: Duet not extruding on x axis and panel due has no screen
And I never got the panel due up either but filastuder said they would replace the panel due and the LCD I checked the wires on that one and they are fine (I'm using the premade wire lead that was optional ) so that will be fixed as well so everything seems good just that e0 but I only use one extruder

RE: Duet not extruding on x axis and panel due has no screen
Yeah I worked out all the other issues mainly cheap Chinese wire but that's going to be fixed and I tried getting the e0 to work but no dice it's printing at the moment on the e1 port I could never get the e0 going

RE: Duet not extruding on x axis and panel due has no screen
Ok I did get e1 to work for some reason it didn't assign the number in the config g file when I gave the command so I went back and tested both e0 and e1 and e1 works as should e0 nothing but it's still strange because from my understanding of the m122 command it didn't show any fault at least that I read in it

RE: Duet not extruding on x axis and panel due has no screen
ok i finished my work and started back looking at the printer i found the problem with the x motor is the cheap cable wire that was supplied with the printer i made a new one with some better wire like i did for the e motor and its working fine again so i ordered quality wire for all the motors (it kinks if you look at it worng) as that too is going to get replaced immediately so that issue is solved wire will be here monday. as for the e motor even with a new cable i get nothing i also remapped to the e1 driver and still got nothing tested with 2 different cables and 2 different motors on both drives same results with both test. i checked the voltage at the duet terminals and it was at 11.99v so the voltage looks good and this was what i got when i ran the M122 command

RE: Duet not extruding on x axis and panel due has no screen
Ok will will measure the terminal voltages and run the M122 command and post the findings to you I will have to do it in just a little bit as I have to finish up an animation so I don't get behind on it but I will do it as soon as possible again thank you

RE: Duet not extruding on x axis and panel due has no screen
I've tested a little more and the x axis will move now dont know why its the same motor wire from the y i was testing it with i have the motor out just sitting on the machine same with the e didn't but nothing on e still at all no matter what can't even feel the motor engage to hold it in place
