All the responses indicate that marlin is out there responding. It looks to me like your end stops are not set properly. Enter command M119 to get back the end stop status.

Incidentally, note the following.
1) until you home an axis you will not be able to move any closer to the end stop position. You should be able to move up, but not down past your starting position until you home. Also, I'm not sure of this, but you might not be able to move up if you have max endstops enabled - which is the default. Marlin is indicating that your end stops have been tripped.

2) you will not be able to extrude until the hot end has reached a specified temp (170 by default). That is what the message about cold extrusion is referring to.

oh I understand the cold extrusion part I just hit that to see what functions would or wouldn't work.

I am using mechanical end stops but I don't know how to set them up properly

This was a functioning machine before it had taken me weeks to get it working properly with firmware but I was having heater issues so someone suggested I go back into firmware and adjust the max pid setting and that's when I misplaced my original configuration file and had to start back over from scratch.

When I press the x y z in both directions I get no response from any of the motors
