Or...

Are you saying that with the axis stationary, and the spindle on, that there is no activity on the Y-Axis; however, if you then issue a G0/G1 command that the motion is jerky (when, without the spindle, it would otherwise be smooth).

(It has a bearing as to where noise/whatever can be influencing the control box).
With all axis stationary if i spin up the spindle the Y stepper turns clockwise must of the time but did turn anti clockwise a few times.
If I run some code then spin the the spindle the y stepper starts to fight the code
