Unable to drivecontrol motor with ESP32 using logic level shifter

I am using an ESP32 a TB6600 micro stepper, and a Nema 23 stepper motor, I am trying to drivecontrol the motor with the esp32 but the TB6600 requires a 5v signal, I tried to fix this by using a logic level converter (specifically this) but when I attempt to drivecontrol the motor I get a very slight hum out of the motor and no movement.

The motor controller and motor both work as I tested it with an Arduino Uno.

void setup() {
  pinMode(15, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(16, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(17, OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(16, HIGH);
}

void loop() {
 
  digitalWrite(15,LOW);
  digitalWrite(15,HIGH);
  digitalWrite(17, HIGH);
   delay(200);
}
