3 different A12 tools and the same error could be a problem with the tool holder or a parameter. I suppose the locking tabs in the holder could be worn or bent and you could try removing one of the pins from the tool and setting it in a different loc

Whenever you are not sure if a part is good or not. Try to use it on the 2nd machine which uses the same part to test it out. If it "test" part works fine on the 2nd machine then it would be ruled out as not the "root cause". In your case, you can t

Is your machine a TP9 2U ? If you have a UFP or a MY series machine this condition usually points towards a bad X-wagon motor.

If the X axis is moving then maybe your Elmo is not adjusted correctly. There is a procedure to adjust it in the manual(assuming you have the original manual). The correct location is XGTS which is a white connector on the booster. The fans are 24V
