Topic: for sale davinci 2.0

i am not sure how to wire a new stepper motor so i don't want to break it. as of right now it needs the front stepper motor replaced. i bought 2 the first one is the right one but it is to long won't fit the second one has different color wires so i can't use it as the wires don't make sense and i have no way to tell what ones go where. i am so frustrated i need  a new printer that has interchangeable parts! if you can help great if you are looking to buy it , it comes with the bluetooth xzero cart as well to change your settings on the bed and reset the filament spools works great it was suppose to control the filament temp as well but i cant get that part to actually work it says it changed but when you monitor it did not. it does however go 2 temps one abs one pla. that helps alot. i don't get failed prints ever and it prints very nice. i have around $750 invested i truly want help to fix it but no one seems to know or answer so this is my next option $525 plus shipping as you get the 2 new stepper motors. heres the pdf of both motors if anyone can help me

Take a breath and figure it out . are you sure you have a bad  motor? do not let wire colors scare you off there is no real standard.  look at wire pin positions and do a little checking with a multimeter. .

Re: for sale davinci 2.0

Tommy you question was answered last evening in this post.
http://www.soliforum.com/topic/14469/fi … r-control/
so you question was answered and you are getting help.  Not sure why you are reposting  over and over for the same problem. 

Take a breath learn some patience ,perseverance  and basic electric electronic troubleshooting /repair principles.

And I am not saying this to make you feel bad !! there is a learning curve here . Many of us are engineers or technicians used to building and fixing things. We help each other. 
The 3D printing industry and the media are selling a dream  make things at the touch of a button. 
The reality 3d printers are fairly complex machines that are part mechanical ans well as computers . so there needs to be a fair understanding of mechanics , electronic and a little computer knowledge.  Also most companies offer little customer support. . So as the owner of a broken machine you find yourself on a steep slippery learning curve. 

The folks here are willing to help. Just be patient and take the time to listen .
