HS50 Siemens Axis Control Board error (Intializing gantry axes)

Hello everyone, We have a Siemens HS50 error going on as soon as we boot up. It shows message saying "Machine is in test mode." Cause: Initalizing gantry axes. Start Sitest and check machine (firmwre versions,configuration, etc. It will try to reference and it will reference Gantrys 1,2,and 4. It errors out on Gantry3. I noticed it doesnt move in the Y direction. I ended up swapping the Axis Control Board 00335520S11(the (board that you turn the x,y and star off)with Gantry 2 and the problem followed to Gantry 2. I noticed it doesnt move in the Y and the IN light blinks in the Y axis. I went to Sitest-Firmware- and went to Y axis and noticed all but the Gantry i'm having problems with have 0.1.05.06 and the problematic one has 0.1.00.00 firmware. IS the axis control board bad or can i download the firmware. Is there anyone familiar with how to do this or should i order and replace with new one. I just dont want to make problem worse if i try downloading something and mess something else up. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
