stepper motor isnt holding its place
Hi all,
First of all, English isnt my native language so im sorry if my grammer is bad.
Second, I couldnt find an answer to my problem with the search option, but that may be because I dont know what words to use. so if this has been answered before, kindly point me to the thread :-)
I ran my machine a bit hard and now my x-axis motor wont lock into place. all the stepps work but it can easily be wobled, approximately 5mm in each direction.
is my motor dead? can it be fixed if i open it?
all the wires seem to be in place
thanks alot :-)
Dan
