RepRap Tricolor Slave Motor Extruders not Driving, but Hot End Temperatures are Registering

Posted by wheredidjengo 
Hi All,

I just upgraded my Tricolor Mendel to include the two additional extruders wired to the slave controller. The only problem is that the new, extruder 2 and 3, motors are not moving thus no filament is coming out. Pronterface is recognizing their respective hotends and registering the temperatures of the extruders wired to the slave board but when I send the command to extrude material nothing is moving/coming out even though it says "extruding 10mm of filament". I really can't think of what is wrong, I checked and rechecked my wiring and am dumbfounded.

I don't think it's a firmware problem since the temperatures are registering and that means that their is correct communication right?

Please help, any suggestions would be useful!

Thanks!
