PrintrBoard Rev E Question

Hello! We have PrintrBoard Rev.E and frimware Marlin (We using in PrintrBoard Rev D.), and have problem:

When we pluging in any of motors (Nema 17, 17HS4417) to extruder ( on the X and Y axes they work properly) and try to start extruding, motor starts to make noise and after he finished working ( approximately after 10 sec.) inside of the motor appear pulsating sounds.

Maybe Need change settings in Extruder? If needed, so what?

Is it only one motor making this noise? it may be wired incorrectly. Try it without filament and check that they are correct. Swapping the middle two wires often makes it work if this is the case.
Might also be insufficient power available to drive the extruder, ie power supply too small or you may need to crank up the current to the extruder output.

No, Motor its work, i connect this motor to X or Y and worked Nice!

I connect my old PSU from old printrboard to New PrintrBoard, i don`t think what problem power.

Wires? Hm.... I I connected so:
1) Blue
2) Red
3) Green
4) Black

It sounds like your extruder motor is getting enough current for the driver to overheat. Then the temperature limit is reached on the driver electronics and current is cut for a moment, till temperature drops and cycle is repeated.

You can try to solve the issue by turning counter clockwise the adjustable potentiometer for the E axis on the board so current is reduced.

Put up a close-up photo of your controller, it will help.

I have the same Problem with the Y-Axis. If I change the wires of the Motors from x to y. The X Axis Motor will have this Problem.

I try Frimware change from Marlin to Repetier. but nothing help.

The Motors are cold...

Must be on the pcb then - try wiggling the 4-pin header that doesn't work and see if it comes and goes. It could be a dry joint or poor solder joint on either the header or a component on that output.

I've solved this Problem!

Turn the potentiometer on the Board a little bit for the motor, who make the noise after seconds.

this will solve the problem.
