Thank you sir for taking your time to help me! It works now and it was the cable!.
Yes i did try another motor with the E cable and then it workt😅
Dont have a pancake motor yet! Do you advised against?
I would like to try it so i can get the "moving wheight" down.
So anyway i felt that I've tried everything. But with your test code i decided to try again, it was so much easier with that. And pretty soon i find that it was the cable.
Thank you again! Much appreciated!

When you swapped cables did you try any other motors with the E cable?
You re-calibrated the Esteps after changing the extruder? Also after changing the mainboard?
Did you happen to go with a pancake motor for the extruder?
The attached file "test.gcode" contains the following:
G28 ;auto-home all
G1 F2100 Z100 ;move up 100mm
M302 S0 ;turn off cold extrusion prevention
G92 E0 ;reset the extruder to 0
G1 F600 E100 ;extrude 100mm of filament
M400 ;finish all moves
M302 S175 ;reset cold extrusion prevention
With your E motor correctly wired and the nozzle removed (there is no heating) print the file. The code is simply telling the printer to push 100mm of filament.
If it doesn't work then the problem may be in the cable, or in the plug on either the motor or the motherboard.
