Stepper Motor reversed
Hi Guys
My name's Simon and I'm a tech at a UK school
Good to meet you all
Please could I get some advice?
I have just repaired the schools 3D printer (UP plus 2)
and replaced a damaged stepper motor and X limit switch
but the motor moves in reverse so doesn't initialize properly
can the motor be rewired to change direction ?
motor description below:
Many thanks

Thanks I have worked it out now
I have taken out the R,B,G,K wires and swapped them to K,G,B,R and now the motor runs in reverse
(its a 4 wire socket)
All the best
Simon
