Chinese 6040 stepper drives

Hi John and thank you for the reply

it was the X axis that originally stopped working but this time it is the Y axis.
when the X axis went i did read about checking wires and i did change the X axis one but i found it to be a little more fiddly than i thought it would be. i also didn't ground it out as i wasn't confident in soldering a wire to the sheath without damaging the wires below, anyway i am sure that it isn't the wires causing the issue

i have looked at other drivers but was unsure if they are compatible or if i had to change the motors as well. the terminal connectors on the drivers are also a concern as i wouldn't have a clue which wire is which.

the power supply voltage is 24volt

i have contacted cnc4you and they are currently looking into which driver would be best suited as a replacement so i will let you know what they say. in the mean time i have attached a photo i took of the X axis driver but they are all the same
