So I bought a Photon and, after waiting an unreasonably long amount of time to actually receive it (which is unrelated, but adds to my frustration), I started printing with it. The quality was great, everything was working like I expected it to, but then within three days of getting the printer I'm having a Z-axis malfunction, where it just won't move.
I've looked online and have seen a lot of similar issues, but in all of them the printer's fans and LCD are also malfunctioning. In my instance the fans and LCD work fine, and it's just the Z axis that won't move. I've tried power cycling and updating the firmware to no avail.
It might be relevant to note that I had a print going while I was out and about, and when I returned the print appeared to be partially-complete, still attached to the build plate, and the build plate was all the way up at the top of the Z axis.
I have relatively little experience in troubleshooting hardware, so how would one go about figuring out what the issue is?
