Hoping someone can help me figure out if I have a bad motor or there is something else I'm not catching. Motor is my Y2 motor. I have checked the wiring, I have plugged it into the Z Axis connection on the black box to see if it was a slave issue but it didn't work there either. All my other motors hum along nicely and respond. This one seems to be seized or something, It doesn't want to spin, even though it seems like its trying to. Really hard to explain so I took a little video of what it sounds like and what it seems to be doing. Any guidance would be appreciated!! video can be seen here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/NU25dbgJkCedWnXFA thanks.
Agreed, the sounds are exactly what a motor sounds like if you have coil pairs crossed, or if only 3 of the 4 wires make contact. Multimeter instructions here : docs:blackbox:faq-identify-motor-coils [OpenBuilds Documentation]
Seems it was a problem with the cable bit must be broken somewhere. I replaced it with some speaker wire to see if I can get it working and it works beautifully now. I'll have to replace with some real cable.
