    #2 Check the Inner Tube of the Laser Tube

    Turn off the machine.
    Remove the 8 screws from the laser tube cover, and then remove the laser tube cover.
    Push the entire X-axis components back and forth, and see if there is any significant shaking of the liquid inside the laser tube (as shown in this video).

    If the issue persists, start the machine and the pump plug should be connected to the Y1 circuit board.
    Slightly peel off the pump wire insulating gel.
    Make sure the multimeter pen touches the metal part of the wire
    Check if there is voltage from the pump interface on the Y1 circuit board
    • If the voltage reading is 24V or around it, please replace the water pump.
    • If the reading is around 0V or way off 24V, please replace the Y1 circuit board.
