My G2S Pro has never worked and /I bought it in may and I am still waiting for parts from Geeetech themselves.

My problem is the X axis. It goes the wrong way, even after changing the true/false statements in the firmware.

Accrding to this pciture of theconfig.h file I cannot change the direction of heX axis because the comment states thatadelta does not invert, so what do I do to fix this problem?

I can tell you I have tried physically swapping motors and I got the same problem.
I have tried uploading the firmware several times with different true false statements and none of it affects the X axis on my Delta G2S Pro printer. I am starting to think the problem is the controller boardand not the motor.

I tried removing all my wiring and starting again from scratch - but still the problem exists.

Hi,
Since the change of software is no use,i think you can try to invert the connector of X axis then plug it,cuz maybe the circuit has a problem caused the wrong direction.

Hi,

I think when you say "invert the connector" you may be talking about the wire connector and to push the wires out and back into the connector in reverse order, as these little 6 pin connectors only go in one way at the stepper motor end and I think maybe at the GT board end.

That does sound logical. But if that worked, would that prove the board is at fault?

I have already tried swapping the stepper motors around and the stepper motor controllers too and this made absolutely no difference, the X axis still goes the wrong way when trying to home it.

Yep,maybe the port of the X axis is at fault,though it happens rarely.I think you can have a try.
Good Luck
