You may have a bad parameter for the X travel limit.
Do you have the parameter list?

Yes I was reading the manual last night and found X limits setting paramter 44 45 will try this and see .

Also check this. Press the MOD key, then use the arrows to scroll through the menu. One of those is user definable travel limits. That may be part of the problem.
