Problem: Cannot communicate with Extruder

Seems like I cannot make the gears turn on the extruder when It is connected to the extruder slot on the motherboard. When I switch it around with the x axis, I can control movement of the extruder motor by clicking home to x..

So its not the motor.

I think it may be the software or the motherboard

I have the GT2560 board with a single Mk8 extruder

I have exchanged my DRV8825 driver with another one and still no solution.



Since the GT2560 has slots for two extruder can someone guide me to changing the software to activate the extruder 2 slot as the extruder 1 slot in the program????





Any ideas would be great, thanks!

Woww I just solved my problem by updating the firmware found on the geeetech website.



Yay now starts the fun.
