Hello, I ordered 39 steppers motors on ebay, almost all of them are 4-6 wires, I have a arduino ramps 1.4 connected to a computer power supply,
I used my multimeter and found the 2 coils on a few on my motors (I didnt check the rest) I connect it to my arduino and open pronterface,
I can manually run the motors (right nothing connected to the arduino except the 1 stepper motor) to turn when I click the +x, but when I do it the motor turns counter clockways then counter clockway randomly... sometimes counter clockways first, but it does this many times when I click 100+ x, but when I press x- on any number (10 100 etc) it dosnt move at all... I retested on y also, and z will also only go when I click + but not -, no matter what number, I flipped the coils wires on the motor, I regulated the voltage, changed beetween 5 motors, and its the same outcome, please help...
