Topic: Issue with one area of bed..

See the attached image.  For some reason when my carriage hits the general area marked in red, the carriage sort of has a seizure, and jumps around.  That, of course, screws up the print.  It seems if I print the model in the green area, it's just fine (or as fine as this stupid Da Vinci is ever going to be, but I digress...)

Any ideas?  I've aligned the belts. I replaced a broken bearing mount.  Oh... and it also randomly hits the center back wall when trying to go back to the home position and just hammers it.  I have to power it off, move the carriage, then send it back home again.
What gives??  Grrrr...

Thanks.

-Craig

Re: Issue with one area of bed..

Sounds like the wiring harness may have a break or a short. Is it just in one axis or both that its jumping around?

Re: Issue with one area of bed..

when it does it, it sort of seems like it's moving forward and to the right.  it's like only during diagonal movements.  that's my impression.
