Hi,

I need your help. At first I replace the bushing IGUs that has been damaged and cause one axis in the z axis only moves one of the right side only, or switch to the left, apparently after replacing the result is still the same.

I decided to take off the motor on the z axis of the rails of the x-axis and 2 smooth rod. Then I use this G1 Z50 F2000 and homing, it turns out the two motors on the z axis rotates either the right or left, the part that stops just vibrate and make a sound, and sometimes the two motors that spin as usual, I tried to give the lubricant and the result was still the same ,

How do I fix it? I need your help.

From this address I get something: [reprap.org], the voltage at the motor axis z are only 0,1V, the potentiometer is also already I rotate maximum and I do not understand this.

I would say you should check your cables, especially the one of the motor which doesn't work - I would bet there is an interruption somewhere

Which electronics are you using? Are the motors wired in series or in parallel?

The cables are fine, I get voltage at potentiometer on the board Melzi Z v2 is 0.1V, and the potentiometer has been rotated maximum.

Right now I've got a new Melzi but different from the previous ones, there is written like this: Melzi v3b Zonestar. Both motors are connected in series.

By this time I had to upload the firmware and install the cables. I do not know if this could work like using Melzi previously?
