Does anyone know just where to find the X Limit switch on the HAAS Mini Mill?
I read that it's under a cover but have no idea what needs to be removed to even get at it.
When doing a power up restart, the table travels all the way to the left hitting the end of it's travel and then generating an X Limit error code.
I believe the problem to be a stuck or bad switch.
HELP!

I haven't actually looked for it, but I would expect the home switch to be on the right side of the Y carriage under this long front cover attached to the table.

It's actually on the back side in the middle of the table pointing up.
There is a small ramp shaped sheet metal actuator on the right side of the slide which then contacts the switch when the table moves far to the left when homing.
That piece had bent out of the way due to chip buildup that had accumulated under the cover since 2001.
It was just a matter of clearing out all the crud, bending the actuator back into place and putting the cover back on.
Problem Solved!

Excellent.
Glad to hear this. Good to know where it's at.
