Motor turns in wrong direction

EnglishNederlandsfrançaisDeutsch

Motor turns in the wrong direction

Possible causes :

1. Motor connector inserted in reverse

   - Unplug the motor connector from the controller and check for correct orientation
   
   

2. One or more lines in the motor wiring are switched

   - check the wiring from controller to motor for correct wiring trough the right pins
   
   

3. Axis direction set wrong in firmware

   - check the configuration.h in marlin for correct setting of axis reverse flags
   
   

   This is how it should look for the stock K8200 configuration:

   #define INVERT_X_DIR false // for Mendel set to false, for Orca set to true

   #define INVERT_Y_DIR false // for Mendel set to true, for Orca set to false

   #define INVERT_Z_DIR false // for Mendel set to false, for Orca set to true

   #define INVERT_E0_DIR true // for direct drive extruder v9 set to true, for geared extruder set to false

   #define INVERT_E1_DIR true // for direct drive extruder v9 set to true, for geared extruder set to false

   #define INVERT_E2_DIR true // for direct drive extruder v9 set to true, for geared extruder set to false

   #define INVERT_X_DIR false // for Mendel set to false, for Orca set to true
