3D printed clock, Stepper motor

[Hanna]

 

Hello everyone,

I am making a 3D printed table clock.
This will be set in motion by a stepper motor(Nema14), an arduino and a driver (A4988).

I will then provide you with images of the clock and the finished project, the STEP files for those who wish to 3D print this project.

So I need precise rotation of the stepper motor.
But I can't get my stepper motor to rotate.

I followed different tutorials including this one: A4988, a breakout to control stepper motors... even in microstepping - MCHobby - Le Blog 12
Using arduino micro, Nema 14 motor, an A4988 driver. The engine seems stuck and does not turn.

Any ideas, recommendations, etc.?

My first guess would be to verify the wire pairs. If the 1A/1B and 2A/2B wires aren't paired correctly then the motor will act oddly.
