Do you have a 12-24v power supply plugged into the middle 2 screw terminals on the right hand side?.
If not, that is your problem. Inputs are powered by this. Only the outputs use the 5v power.
They are 2 separate circuits.

Around a 2Amp supply should be plenty.

Missing out this power supply is a common problem.

Broken wire or pin between controller and driver DIR terminal?.
Controlling the stepper DIR simply works by switching the 5v on or off to the drive DIR terminal. So a broken wire is the first place I'd start.
