    Hi guys/gals,

    I've got an issue with an OX CNC. Used to work fine, then it didn't!

    Y Axis (Long Axis with Slave Motor) stops working and X axis starts to lose the plot. (Tried 3 times (as seen on the tooling block).

    UGS settings attached. I've got a lot of red lights on the steppers when the machine is turned on. I've put a video clip of when it's operating (before it stopped working).

    I've tweaked the X-Axis so it's on a lead screw. (done ages ago and been working since).

    No obvious error messages in UGS, just stops receiving confirmation of command completed.

    Any tips would be gratefully received. Thanks.

    Is there any chance a wire may have come loose, or broke? It seems weird that it worked but now doesn't, unless another setting got changed. I thought someone recently had a similar problem then found they had a loose wire. Also, if the wheels somehow tightened up that can cause step loss.
