Re: X, Z motors not working, Y and E does

kind of the same problem here.

search through some threads but didn`t find the answer.

So 3 years ago i bought an prusa mendel printer from maker gear. with ramps v1.2. just this week i started building the damn thing(knee operations and suddenly i have tons of time...)

so to day was d-day. hooked it up to the computer end started testing.(lasted arduino ide, and latest printrun, not sure if i need more software)

first testing the motors. the extruder works fine. all the axes go one way.... at one point the x went both ways. but later on it stop doing that and it goes one way.

so i started switching things around:

first i pulled out the end stops(tested them en they open and close) didn`t doe anything
then tested al the motors on the extruder output and they all worked fine.
then swapped the polulu`s with the extruder one. on the spot of the extruder they work fine but they don`t work on their own spot...

so i am probably missing something. it looks like an end stop problem.

so i`m a bit stuck here. who can point me in the wright direction?
