@mac said in I could use some help:
@fcwilt yes, that is what’s happening. The bed did touch the endstop and then back off; that’s an improvement.
Here's the problem.
When you tried jogging Y by -10 it went toward the front? Correct?
But the homing moves were supposed to be:
- a minus move
- a plus move
- a minus move
Based on the jogging test it should have moved:
- toward the front
- toward the back
- toward the front
I think there are two problems:
- the normal/reverse setting for the Y stepper is wrong (see M569 P0...)
- the steps per mm are wrong - too few (see M92)
I would like you to:
- change the M569 setting from whatever it is to the other setting
- try the home Y test and observe the movements
- try the jogging test and verify the correct directions
- if the directions are correct find some means to measure a move of, say, 100mm and see if a 100mm jog moves that distance.
Thanks.

toward the frontSince it's a bed-slinger in Y, isn't a PLUS move going to move the bed towards the FRONT? (Move the head towards the +y part of the bed.)
I may be confused.

Correct (about the move, not about being confused).
But according to mac a minus jogging move was moving the beds towards the front. I can only go by what he posts.

@fcwilt Y homes like it should. None of the + moves work. When I -10 it moves FORWARDS.

I understand about the jogging move.
And since it is wrong you need to change normal to reverse or vice-versa in the M569 for the Y stepper.
That should get jogging going in the right direction.
IF it does try homing Y

I give you code to try and you end up with something rather different.
I really do know what I am doing.

@fcwilt I don't know how that happened, honestly. I absolutely don't remember seeing that in your code, or copying anything that looks like into my code.
Frankenstein's Cinderella, that's all I can suggest.
This extraordinarily long thread has the code you suggested in it. It was the first code you provided to me. I know where it is. So I will go and get it, and put it in the homez.g again.
Now we will see what happens.

You been drinking?
Anyway, have you changed the rotation of the Y stepper so the jogging operations move it in the right direction?
I'm still anxious to verify that the S setting is the problem there.

On the X-axis, the printhead's chattering up a storm. When I 119 it, this is what I get:
6/27/2022, 4:18:07 PM M119 Endstops - X: not stopped, Y: not stopped, Z: no endstop, Z probe: not stopped
