Please help MAJOR z axis issue out of the box

so i JUST got this printer put together, all the cables are where they need to be, plugged in and such. when i turn it on and do the first time auto home per the manual it does the x and y but the z axis does nothing. they are not locked when no power but gives me the error of “Auto-Home failed! Restart printer! check wiring on end stop switches and stepper motors for damage or disconnection.” what can i do?

First, re-check your cabling. Is the Z-axis cable / cables really plugged in?

You are going to laugh. It was the connector IN the black junction box, the lil booger managed to get knocked loose. Thank you for making me think of that

Not laughing - it has happened to most of us from time to time. Sometimes we just need to be reminded that it can be simple things.

Good that it got fixed.
