Your config says DueX PWM1, that’s where you can plug in 5V, GND, and the control wire. The expansion connector, where pin exp.heater5 is, is where the DueX plugs in, so is not accessible.

I was referring to this page on the documentation.

@droftarts Thank you.
When I plug in the Probe to PWM1 I get an over voltage error. The screen goes white. I unplug it, of course I don't want things to fry.

First, you need to allocate an unused heater expansion channel to reconfigure as the servo control for the BLTouch. For example, if the E2Heat output is unused, you can use heater 3 which corresponds to the PWM1 connector.
Yes, it's a bit confusing. Because each of the PWM and heater outputs are shared on the Duex, ie the same signal controls PWM1 as e2heat, and PWM2 is shared with e3heat, etc, you need to use a PWM connector whose matching heater is free. The naming of the heater outputs is also a little confusing; heater 0 is the bed heater, heater 1 is e0heat, heater 2 is e1heat, and the heater 3 pin on the expansion header (exp.heater3) controls e2heat and servo output PWM1 on the Duex!
I think I'll rewrite this in the morning, to make it clearer.

That's not good. Most likely your wiring is incorrect, possibly you have shorted 5V to GND, or the servo control pin. Check your wiring. Post a picture if you're not sure.

So we are on the same page
Can you share the version of your Duet board?
Do we talk about a genuine BLTouch or a lookalike (CR-Touch, BTT Microprobe, …)?
Which version is the BLTouch? -
@djthuma I've updated the text so it is clearer:
On the Duex and EBoB, connect the BLTouch GND, +5V, and control wires to an available three-pin PWM output. Connect the BLTouch out and GND wires to the Duet Z Probe connector.
On the Duex, heater outputs and PWM outputs share the same signal, ie the same signal controls PWM1 as e2heat, PWM2 is shared with e3heat, PWM3 is shared with e4heat, etc. You need to use a PWM connector whose matching heater is free.
I've also updated the wiring table, as it wasn't in the same order as the pins. Note that +5V is the middle pin on the PWM connector. See the wiring diagram: https://docs.duet3d.com/Duet3D_hardware/Duet_2_family/DueX2_and_DueX5#wiring-diagram

Attached a picture of the wiring of the board, when all plugged in and the BLTouch.
White = Z Probe in
Black = GND
Green = yellow = E2_PWM
RED = 5V AUX
Blue = GND

What errors and or problems are you getting in this configuration?
Can you please send M122 and M98 P"config.g" and share the results?

@djthuma The colour of the wires at your BLTouch are reversed. See https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Connecting_hardware/Z_probe_BLTouch#bltouch-pinout-and-wire-colours
Normally brown and black are GND, but on yours its white and red. Assuming the plug isn't just plugged in backwards, the wiring from the BLTouch is:
GND +5V Control GND Out White Black Yellow > Green Red Blue Which explains why it's shorting out, as the red wire is connected to +5V on the PWM1 connector, and is shorting to the white wire, connected to Z probe in on the Duet.

@droftarts Yes!
That did work to get the probe to function!
I just need to setup the z probe routine for bed leveling.I am running into a different error, trying to have multiple z axis motors.
Only one of them is functioning. Driver 2 with a jumper on the ZB segment.
Then trying to pair the driver 6 and 7 to the Z axis.Is this correct? When I jog after M564 H0, I only have one drive moving.
