I don't know if this is posted in the correct forum, this just looked like it was pretty close to what I need.
I have a RepRapGuru Prusa i3 diy kit that was working wonderfully up to this morning. I developed a serious clog in the nozzle which I fixed with ease. I looked on YouTube to help troubleshoot the problem, and I may have messed up pretty bad. The video I watched said to adjust the voltage pot on the extruder stepper driver, which I attempted to do even though I was too lazy to go get my multimeter and check it first. I think I killed something, the driver will not drive any of the axes. I can drive the extruder motor with the other drivers. It still stutters, which was part of the problem in the first case. The extruder stepper motor is good, I put on a new driver that came as a spare, and it didn't help any.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this problem, all help or advice is welcome. I have the option of running a dual extruder setup, can I just swap the stepper driver over to the second extruder pins and adjust accordingly in the arduino files?
I'm running Marlin V.2 on an Arduino Mega with a RAMPS 1.4 controller and stepstick drivers in case this information is needed.
Should I assume the worst and order a new RAMPS board, they are not that expensive and a spare might not hurt to have laying around if that isn't the issue.
Thanks again for any help.
