Extruder stepper stops and starts (SOLVED)
I can't figure this one out. Rostock max V2 biuld kit from approx 7/16. Machine has been running great except a small endstop hiccup about a month ago. New endstop and printing for several weeks, no problem. All of a sudden, the extruder motor randomly stops and starts. Troubleshoot so far. From ...

Re: X tower homing problem[Solved]
I'm pretty sure I finally got it fixed. A retension of the tower belts seemed to have set things right. Been able to calibrate and print. Several tower homes and no errors.
So mhackney wins with the loose belts theory, but thanks to all who helped.

Re: X tower homing problem
Thanks g. , but I tried that several times and because a tower won't home correctly then it starts a print(actually a tower Cal), it will sometimes crash the printhead right into the bed (I guess because its not zeroing out proper).

The only thing new ( I just found out) is my son tried to us the Rostock on his own and didn't home the machine properly after ...

Re: X tower homing problem
unfortunately the switches all pass will zero fails, they all indicate "open" or "close" as they should doing 30 cycles each. During additional homing procedures, I noticed the Y tower exhibits the same problem as the X tower(but not nearly as often), but never saw the 2 do it together. Of course ...
