Starting Brown sharp Micro Excel takes off at high speed in x axis motor errors out. Any Ideas running 3.7 mr3. X axis lag error moter drops out.

Sounds like a bad encoder.

This sounds like the same problem i had not too long ago. It was a bad bearing in the motor!
Look around your x-axis motor & see if there is a bunch of black dust that would be a good indicator

resolved for now

Rebooted several times did same thing. Finally reset probe head with reset control it started up fine hopefully that is it. Will look at motor and encoder as soon as I get a chance. Thanks for the ideas.
