Extruder Problem 2.2 with reprapmendel 64 firm
September 22, 2013 01:11PM
I have all my axis working correctly and homing right. My extruder however has a whole set of problems 1st being the motor is not turning it seems like it wants to but doesnt i have mess with voltage on it did nothing. I plugged the motor into Y just verify it turns and it does. Did I miss a setting in configuration file?It is a wades extruder set for 2.2 mm in firmware running off a sangunio reprap v1.2 main board and a ardinuo 2.2 extruder board. I appreciate any help been trying every thing I have read and still nothing.

Do you have your thermistor connected? Not sure what firmware you are using, but I know that in Marlin, if you do not have the thermistor connected for the extruder, the software will prevent the extruder motor from running... hope that helps.

If you have e_steps_per_mm set to 2.2, then that is your problem. Try setting it somewhere in the 100 to 500 range, and calibrate from there.
