I ran a selftest and the manual test and the X-axis keeps failing. I don't know why.

I tried:

Re-lubing

adjusting the X-axis belt

Adjusting the cables

I've had no luck with anything :/

Edit: I've watched a video and the extruder just hangs on the left side it for most the time it doesn't go left then right, right aaway

Edit 2: I found the issue that I completely overlooked cuz I was annoyed...the bearing was sticking out somehow

Prusa machines come with phenomenal support, why not consult them directly?

Figured I'd make a post while I wait the 30 minutes

Was it a kit? Had it been printing before you started getting this issue or was this an issue out of the box?
