Layer shifting on A20M

[delo2u]

I'm experiencing layer shifts on my prints no matter what I print I'm getting layer shift. I have determined that the layer shift is on the Y Axis. I've notice a churning noise coming from the Y Axis stepper motor. Thought it might be the belt so I took apart the bed and checked but the belt is fine. I then decided to take one of the stepper motors off my other printer and I replaced it with the Y axis motor of the A20M. Test prints with swapped motor printed good but I'm still getting that churning noise as if though it wants to skip but the other motor is printing fine. So I got in contact with the seller and explained the issue and asked him to send a replacement stepper motor. I'll have to wait till I get it to test with this one. just wondering if the problem might be with the stepper motor driver for the Y axis. has anyone experienced issues like this?
