    clicking

    Good morning, My trm just started making a clicking sound when I jog the Y axis. It sounds like it is coming from the motor. I know stepper motors will click but it is something that just started. Is it acceptable? Are they in fact steppers (x and y axis motors)?

    thanks

    This might be a coupler clicking or ball screw cover.
