printer not working after changing circuit board

[nutts]

Bad news the LCD just started going crazy

Real Joy !!!!!!!!!
The x motor made a noise and so did z
They did not move but they made a noise !!!!!!!!!!!!

Did they made a noise while you tried to turn them by hand?
Or did they move via software? If so then maybe the axis are to hard to turn for your motors...

Bad news the LCD just started going crazy

Can you describe this "crazy" behavior?
Did it occur after you changed the language?
If you turn the motors to quickly they work as generators and can power the lcd even if the power is off. But don't do that, it yould harm your board!

The motors made the noise when I used the buttons on the program
I think maybe they working against the stops ( the true false settings )
The LCD came good after I pushed the Reset Button

If you slowly move the x axis to the center as well as the bed you can be sure that you have enought time if the motor starts moving before they slam in the end of the axis...
Are you using something like RepetierHost or equivalent to controll your printer from your pc?
If you can hear the motors like a summing noise they are definetely enabeled by software...
It can be one of two things:
1) check if the axis can move freely in both directions then try to move the motor (by software) in both directions
2) the current setting to drive the motors on the stepper drivers is to low. You can adjust the current with the tiny potentiometers on the stepper driver. But don't overdo it! Check the temperature of your steppers or try to take them out of your printer/ remove the belts as they should have enough force if they are not loaded with every current setting.

Not such good news
I was using Repetier to move the motors. But the x Axes button was controlling the Z Axes and the Z axes button controls the Z axes also.
So still no movement from Y or X

Maybe you connected the right Z Motor to X
and the left Z Motor to Z Axis
Do the other motors have holding torque / are difficult to turn when powered on?
Can you try to swap the connections of the motors to try if the connection has the issuse or if it's something else?
Swap the directely at the gt2560 to test if the cables to the motors are working.
And I would really like to know if the knob of your printer is working now (Does "does the samething" mean it works or that it doesn't work?)

No the knob does not work. All motors turning freely when power is put to them. And checked wiring all wires are in the right connections but X still controls z Z still controls z

I have seen that some stepper directions are inversed in the firmware of geeetech (extruder and x-axis). I changed it for my firmware configuration too. Can you try if the new firmware works?
But I guess if the motor doesn't work at all it is cause by something else (the update should only correct the direction it's going).

Can you try swapping the stepper drivers? Maybe they are the issuse... Mind the orientation!

Ok If forgot to add sd-support. Only this is changed in v3.
