Try to shut down printer, close main switch and disconnect from power bar 10 seconds and bring back together.
Good luck guy!

DIY Printer Fixing Guide
Double check that when you cleaned the encoder strip that it didn't pop out of the sensor. The sensor should straddle the strip. If it is not, it can give you this error. Also, make sure the sensor didn't become unplugged during cleaning. Also check the sensor to make sure a big clump of dust or fuzz isn't building up in there.
