Roland MDX-500 will not run, Emergency Stop Motor Lock XY

[slandau]

does any know what it means when the Roland CNC mill MDX-500 displays this message when the machine is started? The head unit can move laterally by hand, so I know that it is not jammed. I removed to accordian fold screw cover, and there was very little debris in there, although it does sound and feel very smooth. Do I need to replace a motor or something?
Thanks.

Slandau,

Any of the (4) motors "spindle X Y or Z" may be locked up or jammed, check all of them.

On a separate note you may get more information if you post in Roland section of the Forum versus here.

Hi slandau, I'm having a similar problem on my MDX-500. Were you able to resolve the "motor lock" problem?
