I have a prusa i3 made by Hictop and my z-axis isn’t moving. Now I did some messing around and I switched the cables around and it still didn’t work so I got a new board. The z-axis port works on this board I just need a new cable for my z-axis. Does anyone know where I can get one that is 4 to 6 pin, but it needs to have 2 6 pins. I need it to connect to both motors and then into the ramps board. I have only been able to find cables that are 4 to 6 pin the ones for the X, Y, and extruder.

What I normally see for a parallel setup is a small board (breakout board) to split the feeds to the Z axis steppers. Does your board not have the dual header?

I don’t think so. My printer has this board http://amzn.to/29U3bXN and the way it’s setup is the parallel cable plugs into the main board and it splits off into each motor.
