I have started a new topic for you.
Please include a picture of your board wired up, and describe of the exact steps you are doing to try and move the machine.

im using PC,ive checked all cables from motors they are new just like the series cable from you they work fine
Can you double check your fuses.
I can not see your power to see if it is in the correct port. The green light is USB, are you sure there is 12V at the port a common issue is people using the small green power adapter thing. Cut the power cord and wire directly as shown in the instructions if you are not showing 12V at the board.
REpetier host or repetier server?
its wired direct all fuses fine using RH
i think ive got a broken 12v power plug
no its fine
What errors does Repetier show?
Either repetier shows some sort of error or it is working and the board is not powered.
How exactly are you telling it to move? Do you have an LCD?
im following v1 instructions set up manual move to test green light only comes on when 12v connected no lcd
it shows no errors just says itsidle
Thank you for the screenshots, that solved it I believe.
Red error at the bottom of your screenshot “communication timeout”
Second screenshot shows 115200 baud rate. You need 250000.
YES GREAT…always something little and stupid all working , but my z one side lifts a bit more than the other?
So you have a lowrider?
That is either a loose wire, trying to move it too fast, no lube, Nuts too tight, slight offset. It has to be one of those.
ill do all that then thanks
where do you think its about 5mm difference
Start both at the bottom, leadscrew seated in the coupler (not stretched) If it moves any different than the other side it is one of the previous issues. There is not way to move one side more than the other they are wired together.
