Check the bearings in the axes. It could be as simple as dropping a couple of drops of mineral oil on the axes, and gently working that into the bearings.
ok. so yes both are seized up. by can't move them manually, i meant by hand, and i just checked and that does not change when unplugged. i can try to lube them, but i don't think that's going to help as they did not get worse over time. they went from smooth to stopped. it's not that they move a little, sluggishly. they don't move at all

Are both your X and Y motors seized up, or just one?
Can you try unplugging them from the electronics board and see how they move by hand when not plugged in?
