    Assistance with X axis shift

    Hey guys, so this is my first post.
    I bought a Geetech Prusia i3 Mk2 around July 2018 (second hand so i did not build her).
    She worked perfectly for a while, then i moved to a new place and that's when the issues started.
    During printing the x axis (extruder) moves all the way to the right until it can no longer go, but it continues to print, it starts from the first layer.
    I have tried using a different slicer (I currently use Cura)
    I checked the x and y axis belts
    I checked the rods for any obstruction, and manually moved the x axis around and it was fine
    I have checked and re-checked the wiring
    I tested it by printing from the PC and using an SD card - same result
    I even set the printing speed down to 30mm/s, and increased it in 5mm/s increments and there was no improvement
    I also set the movement speed down t0 60mm/s
    I checked the main power cable running to the printer and even tested it running on a brand new cable and no improvement
    It never slips to the left

    What could be causing this issue?
    I am running out of options and any advice will be greatly appreciated!
