How to Fix HMS 0300-0600-0001-0002: Y-Axis Motion Fault
Bambu Lab HMS error code 0300-0600-0001-0002 is a Y-axis motion fault within the 0300-0600 motion system subgroup. The printer detected that the Y-axis — controlling forward and backward movement of the toolhead or bed depending on the printer model — did not respond as expected to a commanded motion.
What the Error Means
Like other motion faults in the 0300-0600 family, suffix 0001-0002 signals a Y-axis stall detection event or unexpected motion resistance. The Y-axis is subject to the same mechanical wear as other axes: belt stretch, rail contamination, pulley loosening, and lubrication degradation. Because the Y-axis carries the weight of the gantry or bed, it can be more sensitive to lubrication issues than the X-axis.
Step-by-Step Fix
- Power off the printer. Manually push and pull the Y-axis through its full range of travel. Smooth, effortless motion throughout the entire range is expected. Note any spots where resistance increases.
- Clean the Y-axis linear rods, rails, or lead screws (depending on your printer model) with a clean lint-free cloth to remove dried lubricant or accumulated debris.
- Apply fresh lubricant as specified in the Bambu Lab maintenance guide. Distribute evenly and move the axis through its range to spread the lubricant.
- Check Y-axis belt tension. The belt should have consistent tension and not slip on the pulleys. Adjust the belt tensioner if the belt feels slack.
- Inspect the Y-axis motor pulley for a loose set screw. A slipping pulley can cause the axis to fail to reach commanded positions, triggering stall detection.
- Look underneath the print bed or along the Y travel path for any obstruction — a stray tool, filament fragment, or shipping foam that may have been overlooked.
- Run the printer’s homing sequence or auto-calibration and observe whether the Y-axis completes without error.
Parts Required
- Lubricant (appropriate grade per Bambu Lab documentation)
- Hex key set for set screw adjustment
- Y-axis belt if worn or stretched beyond spec
