Guys,

Can anyone help me with with this anoying Z axis movement.

Basically when it is printing the Z axis works correctly, however when it finishes the motors are turned off and my bed goes all the way down.

Is there a way in marlin RC 8 that I can lock the motor ?

Also if there’s no way, can I change my homing command to not go down before probing ?

Marlin is probably doing exactly what your start/end gcode is telling it to do. Check your slicer’s gcode.

Hey @Ryan_Carlyle thanks. My start and end only enables/disable Hotend and Bed

Did you check an actual gcode file to see if the slicer is sticking other stuff in there? Something is telling your printer to home and probe and so forth.

I will check that

There is an idle timer for the motors. You will need to turn it off. It’s also likely your slicer is turning them off.
