Autohome problems

Vertex 3D Printer Vertex - Issues while printing
1

Hi,

I haven’t had any problem with my K8400 up to now but when I’ve tried to execute the autohome I’ve got a trouble with the Y-axis.

The machine positions correctly both, the X and Y-axis, but the Y one doesn’t move, allocating the Y200 value where the printing towbar is. There isn’t any trouble if I myself move the towbar to the right backward corner and execute the autohome; it prints perfectly.

I’ve tried with the M1-V1.1-H1 y M1-V1.4-H1 firmware’s; same results.

Any ideas? Thank you in advance

Hello 3Dani,

Can you tell me how you solved the problem?
I have similar problems with the Z-axis, but I can’t move the platform to the top.
Maybe your solution can help me.

When one axis doesn’t move as expected, first check and clean the corresponding endstop. Oil can get in there and prevent it from functioning.

Thanks. I had the endstop problem and solved it by cleaning.
