MB2 Motor controllers

I have the MG2 and 1 of the motor controllers went out in the middle of a project. I ordered some replacements and still will not work. Has anybody ever had any issues with this?

Thank you

Hi Jason,

We use standard A4988 stepsticks, so it should be fine to plug in a replacement. Can you send a photo of your MG2 and advise if it's X or Y movement that is affected?

Don't forget to set the dial to the position as indicated in this post https://awesome.tech/adjusting-stepsticks/

Cheers

Thanks for the reply Dan.

I checked the stepsticks dial position and adjusted it as per the picture and still same results. After hooking the MG2 back up to the machine I remembered that the stepper motors will only operate in one direction which is to the left rear corner.

Thank you
