Hello, I'm looking for some help with my newly installed Creality Sprite Pro. I spent a few hours yesterday getting it installed onto my Ender 3 and getting my Klipper configs all up to date but for whatever reason once i moved on to setting my E Steps i noticed the printer would not extrude filament. I reseated the extruder connectors on both the main board and the daughter board on the back side of the print head as well but same issue.

One thing I've noticed with it though is that with the steppers turned off i can move the feed gear just fine, but once i turn them back on the gear holds in place to indicate that it is receiving some type of power or command but still not feeding.

Any ideas?

Hmm, I did the same upgrade on klipper but didn't run into any extrusion issues like you described. I presume you cleared out your old config files? Is it possible there's some cruft left over? Bad pin configuration or something?

Did do that yes. Double checked my config against another Ender printer with the same 4.2.7 board as mine and with the same hot end before starting my calibration.
