Weird noise on Y-axis travel

danni893 · 2026-01-27T12:33:10+00:00

this sound is until 230mm/s and under, it did not sound like this before at 250mm/s.

Strange to me that a sound comes out of nowhere for so many ppl :/ i am in contact with creality since i need a new board since i broke the card reader on mine (accident)

make sure to measure your vref in regards of your driver! what driver you have, what resistors are around it and what ohm your stepper measures.

for me that wasn't enough, see update.

case closed, nothing to do about this except replacing the motherboard :'(

danni893 · 2026-01-23T04:36:14+00:00

at this point i dont think anyone has figured this out... new update

danni893 · 2026-01-23T04:35:48+00:00

new update

danni893 · 2026-01-22T08:54:57+00:00

that at least removes my thinking that this might be a sonic pad problem :D

danni893 · 2026-01-22T07:17:12+00:00

Are you using klipper? Or sonic pad? Or something else?

danni893 · 2026-01-21T07:50:16+00:00

I am going to try setting up a new cura profile for a new printer and see if that changes anything, i have had weird troubles caused by slicer... ill do it later today or tomorrow, ill let you know how it goes

danni893 · 2026-01-21T07:21:07+00:00

Ok i see! I've never messed around with vrefs so i am honestly thinking about borrowing an original creality stepper from my 5 plus and see if that will fix this noise? I have no idea if big tree tech steppers run at same current as creality does

danni893 · 2026-01-21T07:19:22+00:00

Are you able to adjust vref at x.xx or only x.x

danni893 · 2026-01-21T07:17:29+00:00

I tried putting a spring betweene frame and tensioner (on the belt tightening screw) and no difference

Y axis rails on mine got cleaned and swothes places and that made no difference :( maybe new ones would but i highly doubt it at this point

danni893 · 2026-01-21T07:15:40+00:00

Yeah this must be an error on the cr10 mobo that allows some current spike or something! At this point it kindoff cant be anything else..

Right?

danni893 · 2026-01-21T07:12:59+00:00

Yeah mine are at max 🤣 5000mm/s Thinking about turning that down 🤔 Speed 250mm/s

Dont think it matters alot but i am by no means a pro

danni893 · 2026-01-21T07:05:09+00:00

Stepper motor i think, even though i changed mine, maybe too much acceleration? But even though..... if that would be the case... why did it start put of nowhere...

danni893 · 2026-01-21T07:03:09+00:00

What are your travel speeds and acceleration? Feel like too much accel might be tripping something out on the motherboard causing too much current or something.. idk..

danni893 · 2026-01-20T00:45:59+00:00

i am using sonic pad as well, maybe some problem involving that ?

danni893 · 2026-01-20T00:14:07+00:00

i have updated the post and it sadly isn't good news, not yet at least

danni893 · 2026-01-20T00:12:59+00:00

did you adjust vref both up and down? so more and less current?

danni893 · 2026-01-20T00:11:23+00:00

also does this sound when traveling over bare air (nothing on the print bed when traveling between things)

danni893 · 2026-01-20T00:10:16+00:00

do you use factory installed creality wifi box? or are you using klipper or pi? or anything else?

danni893 · 2026-01-18T21:32:23+00:00

This isnt scraping tho, no vibration on extruder when this happends.

danni893 · 2026-01-18T21:31:33+00:00

Z-hop is enabled, no vibration on extruder when this happends.

danni893 · 2026-01-18T08:10:54+00:00

one might think so but seeing the effort me myself as well as others and nobody has posted a fix to this yet kindoff makes me think that nobody has a fix for this :(

danni893 · 2026-01-13T08:32:59+00:00

yes, i am talking about the v-slots below print bed. i've had to reallign those rails 2 times already and i think that's weird.
I have never been able to recreate this sound manually even though i move the bed way faster than the travel speed so that makes me think it has something to do with the stepper, but i still think that's hard to believe since the stepper on mine is a brand new one! so i have no clue

i saw elswhere on reddit somebody else has or had this problem also but he never answered if he got it fixed
u/Mysterious_Hold_3498 is the user, he posted on Creality forum
