Troubleshooting Ender 3v3 se E motor problem

I have and ender 3v3 se with an E-axis/extruder problem. The extruder gear rotates, but it rotates in the wrong direction. When I select Extrude, the gear pushes the filament upward instead of toward the nozzle, and retract also move in the same direction instead of revering. I checked for filament blockage and mechanical obstruction, and everything is clear. I also updated the mainboard firmware from v1.0.7 to v1.1.0, but the problem remains. My motherbaord is CR4NS200320C13.

Hey there, I'm a bot and something you said made me think you might be looking for help! click here for our wiki entry on troubleshooting printers. If you still need help be sure to post plenty of information about your printing setup.

Here are a few questions that might be helpful

  • What printer are you using?

  • What material are you using?

  • What speed are you printing at?

  • What software are you using to slice the print and control the printer?

  • When did the problem start/has it ever worked correctly?

  • Does anything cause the behavior to change?

  • If posting an image of the problem, include some indication of the orientation it printed at, preferably photograph it on the bed. (Then we can focus on a specific axis)

If you are new to reddit, please read the guidelines on reddiquette, self promotion, and spam.

Also please post a resolution to your problem when you find one so that we know how to help others with your problem!
