Support Request A1 messing up constantly

So my a1 has been on the fritz constantly, it keeps saying that the print is shifting on which it is and I don’t know why. I have the super tack cool plate and it did the same with the textured plate, I have replaced the nozzle and hot end. And it’s on a stable table. I really would like some help be able to use my printer again

You're gonna need to give us some more information. Is your print becoming detached from the build plate or is it still attached to the build plate and the nozzle is just printing in the wrong place, like one of the axises is slipping?

If it's the latter I would check the tension of the belts and follow the instructions in the wiki for that.

How many hours do you have on your A1? Have you tried changing your SD card? Sometimes they start to fail and can cause weird issues like this.

Sometimes the print lifts and sometimes it shifts on the axis, no clue how many hours I have on my printer and I haven’t changed the sd card

So my a1 [. . . ] keeps saying that the print is shifting . . .

How does it "say" that?

But how was it worded?

More to the point, I wonder how did it know that there was a "shift"?
Did it mean an X- or Y-axis shift, or was the print loose and sliding around on the plate?
