        <title>help with twitching steppers</title>
        <description> i am building a prusa mendel i3 with sanguino 1.3a and everything was working perfectly when all the motors decided to stop working. whenever i use the manual controls with repetier host all the motors do is twitch in all directions. they where working fine before. i am using sprinter firmware i just re did all the wiring to see if it was that but it wasn&#039;t. Any suggestions? :S</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I assume your stepper drivers are good, you mentioned they worked at some point, it would be highly unlikely they all burned out at the same time.<br />
<br />
Since you have temperature reading and host communication, your microcontroller should also be fine.<br />
<br />
Is it possible that while you were working on the firmware you accidentally modified the pin assignments? Can you try marlin just to see if it works?]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ the heater and thermistor for both the heat bed and the extruder head both work fine and read 26 degrees Celsius at room temperature. and i have re uploaded the firmware several times and changed some variable i believed caused the problem to no avail. I am using sprinter firmware]]></description>

Have you tried a different firmware or at least re-uploading the one you use currently?]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Is it possible that something happened to your power supply and the motors are not getting enough power? Can you try a different power supply and check that the power cables have good connection?]]></description>
