The X & Z access auto home smoothly. Whenever the Y axis is supposed to move, it jitters in place.
With the power off, we can manually move the Y axis and it moves smoothly, no jittering.
This only happens on the Y axis while the steppers are powered.
Please tell me this is something fixable.

Re: Jittering
Can you move the bed in the Y axis by hand smoothly and not binding anywhere. Then I would recheck all the cables are connected securely.
If all fails then you may need to adjust the Y-Axis stepper motor current.

Re: Jittering
Check those concentric wheels I know sometimes people remove the middle ones to reduce drag
Here's that assembly video where she checks the wheels...good reference

Re: Jittering
The Y physical components are just fine. We moved the Y cable to the X axis. Any time we told the Y/X axis to move, it did it's epileptic thing.
It has to be the main board.
This is the second EFFING board we've blown in a month. And the same exact way.
Are CR-10's not for having feeble boards?
What can we do to avoid blowing another board? (Assuming we want to throw good money after bad.)
Thank you.

Re: Jittering
Never had a problem with mine, but I bought it from Hictop (through Amazon). I have since heard that they replaced the stock board from Creality, but I haven't opened my control unit to verify.

Re: Jittering
One more thing....make sure the power supply is set properly (110). My friend just bought one and had some weird issues....turns out it was set to 220
