I fixed the problem and even posted a picture of why these form 1+ motors were failing here\> [This was my stepper motor problem (Ball bearing inside) pic](http://forum.formlabs.com/t/this-was-my-stepper-motor-problem-ball-bearing-inside-pic/17970/2)

There was a faulty ball bearing inside the motor. I put it back in place and its worked since.
