      The only way to clear the blinking red light is to manually unplug the red wire: alt text

                  M280 P7 S10 I1 ; Probe Down

                      this Just checks the probe not homing .
                      You need to home X and Y before you can home Z

                        @peter247 Im trying reset the bl touch then home X&Y axis to zero. Then move Z axis up 10 Y axis 15 and X axis 15 then actuate the probe 3 times, then home down z.

                          @Gost101 to me, it sounds like your probe is not correctly wired. To get it to self test, all you need is 5V on the red wire, and GND on the black or brown wire (sometimes blue). Check continuity of these connections. It sounds like you have 5V on yellow.

                                I have upgraded to Duet Firmware 3.3.1.
                                The Z probe is still having problems.
                                Every time I home all the X&Y are homed but not Z and error code:

                                  Also how do I get the extruder thermistor to display in the tools and extras area.

                                  I tried turning the bed on and error:

                                  Error: Heater 0 fault: temperature rising much slowly than expected 1.8*C/sec

                                    I cannot change the fan speed as I could previously slide in the older firmware version.

                                      I still need to find a way to reset the bl touch before each homing.

                                        @Gost101 you’ve got some strange settings. Your tools are defined with fans only! You need to include heater and drive number. Also best to start at T0. Do you have two tools? I don’t think you do. You have:

                                        ; Tools
                                        M563 P1 S"Side Fan" F0 ; define tool 1
                                        G10 P1 X0 Y0 Z0 ; set tool 1 axis offsets
                                        G10 P1 R0 S0 ; set initial tool 1 active and standby temperatures to 0C
                                        M563 P2 S"Front Fan" F0 ; define tool 2
                                        G10 P2 X0 Y0 Z0 ; set tool 2 axis offsets
                                        G10 P2 R0 S0

                                        If you assign a fan to a tool, there will be no slider for it until the tool is active. Try

                                        ; Tools
                                        M563 P0 S"Hot end" H1 D0 F1:2                           ; define tool 1
                                        G10 P1 X0 Y0 Z0                                    ; set tool 1 axis offsets
                                        G10 P1 R0 S0                                       ; set initial tool 1 active and standby temperatures to 0C
                                        

                                        For the heated bed )assuming it’s connected), you need to tune it with m303; see https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Tuning_the_heater_temperature_control

                                        Edit: also, fan1 and 2 are thermostatically controlled, so are not displayed.

                                            I do not have two tools.
                                            The only things that I wanted to control were the Hotend temp, Bed temp, and the extruder side and front fans.

                                            But thanks to your code the hotend temp now works. As for the bed using M303 it first errored but after getting around 49.3 degress but I'm running it again so hopefully I can get to 70*C as I could before the firmware upgrade.
                                            Still having problems with the z probe.
