Okay I have figured out the problem. After spending the last 4 days messing around with this thing trying every possible thing to get it to work. I went to the home page and started from the beginning. Suddenly I realized that there is a grbl shield patch for the grbl code… I was using the generic grbl code from github. I loaded it up and BAM it worked no problems. Thanks alot for all your guys help. I’m an idiot.

The blue light is coming on and after I send a command it is saying okay. I am as sure as someone can be that my motor is hooked up properly. The LED next to each axis flashes when I manually turn the motor shaft. It does not flash when I send my commands which have been “G0X1000” or “G0X05Y05Z05” or many other combinations with out the “”, all have an ok after them. I have run the motor before and it worked fine. The pots I have adjusted clockwise full open and counter clockwise full closed. Maybe I should reflash my arduino? I really dont know what could be wrong. I dont get a peep out of the motor. I am using the cheap $15 Sparkfun motor and I found this video http://vimeo.com/23756500 and hooked them up the same way and I looked at the datasheet.
