It turns out the firmware doesn't like moving any of the axes (besides homing) when it can't detect the thermistor.
If you're getting temperature reset errors, it might be worth checking the thermistor wiring.

+1 - try this.
IMO totally bizarre behaviour, makes assembling and testing a printer in stages a bit tiresome haha

I flashed the board. now i can move the motors any way i want to. But I still get a m999 reset max heat problem although I change it to max heat 350 C. whats the deal here?

so to move X left from the home position, I have to hit the "move right" button first, then I can move it left
same thing for Y - to move forward from home, I have to hit the back button first, then I can move to where ever I want to.
Z will move manually without having to do this, however.
not really sure why this is, but it is....

should I reflash the board would that help?
