Re: extruder not working on sprinter/pronterface or repetier with ramps 1.4 - 11 years ago
Mahin, did you swap the pin numbers of E0 with your new X (in the E1 spot) pins or with the original X pins? just wondering because I tried one of the options a while ago and it didn't work, but depending on how you interpret your wording there are 2 possible outcomes...

I tried that to no avail with mine, I also discovered that somewhere in the works the extruder drivers no longer power an axis motor if i swap them, so i tested the voltage and i'm not getting power to the extruder pins. Might reflow or replace the MEGA with a legit arduino instead of the sainsmart version i have nowby Bensonthe3rd - RAMPS Electronics

Hello there! This is my first time using this forum, so apologies for any lack of etiquette, general stupidity, etc, etc. I built a kossel mini and am very close to being able to print, with everything calibrated that I can calibrate EXCEPT FOR THE EXTRUDER. It doesn't turn when I tell it to using Pronterface, even though the text box says that it has successfully extruded the set amount of filaby Bensonthe3rd - RAMPS Electronics
