Y Axis - Not homing / moving correctly (Wanhao i3 Plus / Balco Touch)

[TenbagUK]

Any chance the stepper plug was reversed originally (plugged in wrong way)?

That was my first thought but unfortunately the plugs can only be installed one way due to the way they are shaped. I'm considering putting Advi3++ firmware on the printer and seeing if I can reset the direction of travel via that way, but it will be a good bit of reading before I understand what the hell is going on. Ideally I dont want to flash the printer, but it looks like it may be my only option without potentially frying my board from messing with electrical cables.

Thought that may be the case. Weird change.

ADVI3++ is well worth it though.

You are unlikely to fry the board switching stepper cables. Jnust make sure it's not powered on when you're switching wires.
