Some more details about your setup might help...

Can you move the axis manually without using force when it is not powered ?


Most of my technical comments should be correct, but is THIS one ?
Anyway, as a rule of thumb, always double check what people write.

NO , I can move it by force , but by the host software it just vibrates

could be:
dead stepper
dead stepper driver
broken stepper wire.
vref not set
to much phyiscal resistance in the axis

presuming you have a board that uses pololu modules....

While everything is off swap X and Y motors, does the issue move or stay?

Have you set the vref pots?

With the belt removed does the X axis move freely?
