My question
1. I have something wrong assembly ?
2. How I can check the extruder moter is Ok or not ( like G-code command to rotate it )
I try to click the extruder command in software but I can't see any change after click them

Thank in advance
Theo

You should raise the temperature to 235-240 degrees.

Maybe the distance between the nozzle an hot bed is too low to let the filament come out. Try to adjust it.

I have the same extruder and I had to rotate the trimpot on the driver board for the extruder. About a half turn from where it was by default. Also make sure you loosen off the bolt holding that tightening bracket up a bit for abs printing.

Thank All
After I trial an check again with my assembly
I found
1. I install chip A4988 of Extruder in wrong direction
2. I set Z-axis too low
3. I put the wrong parameter in Repetier
After I fix , Extruder can run and everything look better
Now I can print
^^

Thank you again
