The X axis terminals from my Duet board does not seem to be sending the correct signals to the motor. I tried plugging in the same motor to the Y axis terminals and it worked fine so its definitely a problem with the connections or the driver chip but I do not know how to test either problem.

Assuming it's a new board, I suggest you get in touch with either T3P3 or RepRapPro, depending on who you bought it from, to ask for a replacement.

Hi Neosolon
I see you have got in touch by email. We will sort out a replacement board if required.
Can you confirm you are setting the stepper current in config.g:
M906 X800 Y800 Z800
Or something similar, if you set it very low then then you would have issues, eg a typo like this:
M906 X80 Y800 Z800
If thats not the case then it looks like we need to exchange the board.

In the meantime, is there a way to trick the duet into thinking one of the extruder ports is the X axis by changing the set-up code?
Only by rebuilding build the firmware. There are gcodes to swap thermistor channels around, but currently no gcodes to swap stepper motor channels. If it will take a long time for you to get your replacement Duet, I guess I could knock up a special release that swaps them around for you.

They will be shipping it tomorrow so it may take a week for it to arrive. I could work on some other parts of the project but having the x-axis working for debugging would be nice. If anything it would be just a neat thing to have handy.
I've put a build of the firmware with X and E motors swapped over at [www.dropbox.com].
