I am having a problem with my Z axis.
Everything else on my printer works perfectly fine except for my Z-axis, which makes a loud grinding noise whenever I try to move it up or down.
I've tried re-soldering the connection to the plugs a million times to no success. I've even tried plugging it into the slot on the electronics right above it (not sure what its for) and I had the same results; a loud grinding noise.
Any idea how I could trouble shoot this problem? Is there a to test and see if the electronics may be broken?
Thanks,
Jeff

Where exactly do you mean by the above?
Have you not got each motor plugged into its own Z receptacle?
