    Who cares if it's sealed, can't void a warranty that doesn't seem to exist! pull the cover and check all the connections.

    Yep, Check top (behind the head) cables also, I had one come a loose when I moved the laser.

    I'd change all my cables also. I have a cheeep 3D printer. Came with a 24" USB cable to connect to PC. Didn't work. Tried 3 other cables before I found one that actually worked. Some machines are really particular.

    SOLVED - I went threw the process of elimination and determined that the issue resides in the Y-Axis Galvo, The motor seems to fault out after about 2-3 minutes of run time. Trying to find a replacement now

    if there's any way possible to borrow a scanhead before buying one, definitely try that- best scenario is to get the seller involved since it's a warranty issue (I'm assuming)

    I've found over the years that something like that mirror not moving may not be the mirror-- since each mirror is controlled by its own wired connection, could be the wire or connection or the data flowing thru it isn't right. You're likely right, but Murphy's law is always in full effect... at least around MY place

    Other scenario would be to have your scanhead checked locally first, all it takes is another fiber laser to plug it in to. If it's bad, it'll be bad when tested elsewhere...
