Y/Z Homing Fault Error 310

[Spuddzilla]

Hi all,

I have been searching the forum for a few days, and I have not been able to find a fix for my scenario.

I have updated to .17 firmware. Running on a Sears Compucarve the machine has 1.5 hours of total carve time.

When I try to run a project the LCD displays: Please Check Home Sensor
after pressing stop:
Y/Z Homing fault Error 310


I did go though the PDF of taking off the top and verifying the ribbon cable under the z-pack is secure.

Under options and sensors the homing sensor always shows blocked. I have put air to the homing sensor and ran a q-tip though it. It doesn't appear that it has ever made contact with the flag, there is a 1/16" on in front and behind the flag.

Has anyone experienced and successfully cleared the 310 error?

Thanks Forqnc,

Your fix worked for me. I hope people find and use this thread, because I never was able to find the one you posted in through the search option.

Gotta go carve,
Later
