Auto Bed Leveling Servo Stuck
January 03, 2015 06:18PM
So I have been using the auto bed leveling feature that ZennmasterM made videos about.

It has been working great until my servo arm decided to stop moving.

When this happens, the words on my LCD display darken.

I can usually move the servo arm manually so that I can actually use the command to move it again.

This time, I can't.

Does anyone know if there is a way to reset the servo? Every time I plug it in the LCD darkens and my servo refuses to move.

Don't know if this will but I was having a problem with my servo when LCD was hooked up, Ramps could not handle it. what I did was installed a 7805 voltage regulator. now it has all the juice it needs. Here is what I did: [forums.reprap.org] close to bottom of page. good luck

Sounds like the servo is shorted or plugged in wrong. It is causing too much current draw from the 5v bus... May need to replace the servo.
