Due to this new info the following ideas come to mind:
Did you unplug anything during the move?
When running code with z moves, have you tried shaking/jiggling the enclosures or cable bundles?
Have you made sure all ribbon cables and computer cards are snapped into slots etc?
Have you asked the previous owner of the machine about these issues? Did they have them as well? - If NO, then it may be move related.
I traced an intermittent error in my Fanuc to a dodgy contact block connection. It only happened when a very specific harmonic was hit when cutting. Must have sent enough vibration through the machine, but a little more vibration was ok and a little less ok too. Might explain why air cutting is ok and real cutting not?
I like the power supply theory too, but a move related problem seems easy to pinpoint if it was turned off working at old shop, and not working after move.
