I'm trying to get my new build up and running, but it stops at step 6 of the initializing sequence...

Here's a video where you can see it finishes the ~1 second rotation, and then beeps/errors out with the 0x53 on the front screen. https://youtu.be/TUtbBfTpiv0
Any ideas on what I should be messing with? The disc/sensor is clean. I've also made the belt more tight/lose as well as moving the sensor more/less into the disc.
After countless hours, I've finally SOLVED the 0x53 error... such a huge relief. So I have built 2 printers that had this error, and was extremely careful about everything that I did, so had a hard time imagining that I plugged something in wrong - I didn't. I tried comparing what Jeff German did in his videos to what I did, and the only difference was that I didn't run the printers before tearing them apart. Simply put, RUN THE PRINTER ONCE BEFORE YOU DISASSEMBLE IT. So simple.
I figure that perhaps the printer stores info about its condition in permanent memory(or it's last bootup), and since I didn't run it, and removed a bunch of the sensors, it didn't have a record of if the sensors function properly.
I realized this, by plugging in the trashed "paper feed switch" into the ASF board, setting it to open, and then booting up. It worked. I then powered down,unplugged, and also unplugged this paper feed switch. When I turned it on again, it still worked... even though the switch was no longer there.

Can you give a slight review on the t dozer build? I am looking to get t dozer p600 build, but I wanted to read a decent review before continuing the diy route. Any regrets? Is it worth it compared to purchasing a spectra?
Thanks!
