I just completed the elite upgrade on my journeyman. Now it moves inconsistently along the x-axis. I home the machine and set the work coordinates so X is 48, then I tell it to go the work coordinates. It never ends up in quite the same spot. I could end up anywhere from about 47 to 48. It’s different every time. I never had this problem before the upgrade but of course the machine is unusable until I figure this out. Any help in diagnosing would be greatly appreciated.
Perhaps this was so obvious that no one responded but thanks to Mitz I now know it was that I had failed to properly tighten a bolt at one end of the ball screw.

Posting about this will probably help some poor soul out there with the same problem. Thanks for posting!
