Re: How to replace extruder motor
Now I connected the Y axis connector to the extruder motor. The video shows what happens when I move the Y axis 50mm. The motor axis does not move. I think the motor is defective or the shaft of the motor disconnected from the extruder cog. What do you think ? Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...

Re: How to replace extruder motor
I do not think the problem is related to the hot end or any obstruction, as the motor does not run even with no filament.

Re: Z-Axis homes above the extruder
The problem is the screw at my printer is not as long as the one on the photo and the screw is tighten all the way. I'll use a drinking straw to supplement the size of the screw.
What is the optimum distance between the extruder tip and the table when printing starts?
