    Hi,

    After using my 3D printer for a couple of months without any problems, I have a big problem with the Y axis :
    With the belt, the Y axis motor doesn't work....it tries to move like there is no sufficient power, and there is a strident noise which stops when I click on "stop motor".... :-(

    If I remove the bed and the belt, the motor moves but with the same noise....

    I uploaded a video from the motor, set the volume up !

    Thanks for your help.
    Benjamin

    If you printer is still under warranty (6 months--I think) then contact technical support with the link on the forum main page and explain the issue. They should replace that motor.
