Hello everyone, just got my LR4 put together and tested everything to work or move as needed. Im having issues in homing the Z axis. When i manually move the z from the screen (have the SKR board with touch screen) both the z axis move properly but when i select Z homing on the screen, only the left side z axis when facing the machine homes, but the right Z axis does not move at all. Not going up or down. What am i do wrong and please help me fix this. I haven’t squared the machine yet as i was just testing everything to work and home before i squared it.
Ignore this post for now. I found another post that share the similar issue im currently having. Let me go through that and see if i can find a fix to my z homing issue. Thanks in advance.
Not going to ignore it: we wire the endstops NC, so if the cable of the endstop is broken, the machine will move when jogging it around, but will not move when you are trying to square it because the endstop reads as triggered already.
Thank you for your response. It turned out to be the wiring. I did switch from SKR pro to Jackpot. My SKR didn’t show any lights for the switches so i assumed it was the board. Even jackpot couldn’t show lights so I tracked down on the switch testing them one at a time. The switch when connected to external wire lit the board so i decided to test the extensions and the wire. The wire that connected to the switch was bad. Now just waiting on the connectors to come in to put it back together
