VFD Spindle doesn't spin

Display flashing 0.0.
Button on front lit red.
Will spin manually.
When I start job, as it reaches the point where it stops and spools up, it won’t spin, but will continue as if all is normal.

All thoughts welcome.

Go over all connections again to double check. There was a case of not installing the pin connector on top of the spindle recently.

Spindle selected in setup?

I had a similar issue after I installed my new 65mm spindle.

Disconnecting all cables and power to the VFD letting it sit for a while then reconnecting solved my issue.

Did you try the second switch where the power cord plugs in? I had that issue lol

Thanks, all! I’ve tried every combination known to man. I removed the front panel of the spindle controller, and on the circuit board in the back is a red light illuminated. I’ve taken a picture and sent it off to Carbide 3D. We’ll get it all sorted tomorrow!
