I haven't used my CR10-S printer in a while, but it worked the last time I did. I turned it on, and pressed auto home to level it, and when it gets to home, it makes a grinding noise super loud, only on the Y axis. I replaced the Y axis stepper motor thinking that was the issue, and it still does it. I've tried to swap out the wires from the stepper motors and noticed that it doesn't do this with x extruder wire plugged into Y. I'm at a loss, I was about to order a new motherboard, but wanted to try any last ditch efforts to see if I can fix it without that first. I can say that is not the limit switch. That was the first thing I checked.

It sounds like you've already done some troubleshooting, which is great. Since the issue seems to be related to the Y axis and swapping out the wires makes a difference, it could be a wiring or connection problem. Double-check the connections and make sure they are secure, and inspect the wiring for any damage or breaks. It's also a good idea to check the endstop switch for the Y axis to ensure it's functioning properly. If the issue persists, it may be worth trying a different controller board if you have access to one, as a faulty board could still be a possibility.

it does seems like a possible fried Y driver...
