Limit Switches Odd Behaviour
Posted: May 2nd, 2017, 11:55 am
3dp 18 from Amazon and it has been a lot of trouble and faulty parts
1) Currently, the Y Axis when I Prepare/Move/Y Axis and it travels and hits the limit switch, the motor stops--like normal.
When I auto home, the motor does not stop. It continues to travel and then throws the belt off. Here is a
video of it from underneath:

2) When the Z Axis auto home, the motor on the left turns and when the carriage touches the Z limit, it stops (as it should). The Z motor on the right, continues to turn and click while the left has stopped properly. This results in a crooked carriage. One side is moving down, the other side is not--motors thrown out of sync. The set screws are tight.
It has been six weeks since my purchase and things are still not functioning. I'd sure appreciate some help.
