You tried swapping the whole scale or just on the port connectors of X & Y .fons post=261218 userid=27700it is a Deckel FP2NC mill
when i power up the machine i see the led inside the scale is working
but on the display of the control unit of the mill the x-value don't apeare
y and z work
i change x and y and now i have 2 problems only z is still actieve

Either case of swapping it cannot destroy the Controller PCB as the 11uA scanner head just has a source LED and 4 photo diode for 11uA of A&B signals .
or 6 photo diodes including Z.No other electronics inside .
Linear scales with visible light source usually has separate proximity circuit for Z marker.Usally with a settable metal strip.
If source LED is visible working remaining is header gap alignment and wiring.
Scales of newer version will have infrared LED and invisible to naked eyes .

You can often see IR LEDS with a digital camera, though.
