      DuetWifi with latest stable release.

      Has been working fine, then between jobs the Z-probe is showing as triggered (1000), regardless of probe position. Using a BL Touch V3.

      • Replaced the BL Touch unit with a new one-did not solve.

      • I tried using other heater pins for servo wire, with updated config - did not solve

      • Re-installed firmware and DWC - did not solve

      • DWC shows probe triggered after reboot even when probe is unplugged.

      Any suggestions appreciated. Config settings are below.

        @shanian79 my M558 command for my BLtouch looks like this:

        M558 P9 C"^zprobe.in" H3 R0.1 F100 T2500 A10 S0.01
        

        Looks like you don't have the internal pullup resistor enabled (the '^' symbol). You also don't need the zprobe.mod pin specified for a BLtouch.

        Failing that, have you checked the signal wire (black/white) is connected correctly? White goes to the z_probe_in pin (circled red below), whilst black goes to ground (circled black). Double check both connections (including the crimps)

          @shanian79 said in Z-Probe Constantly Triggered - Help!:

          M558 P9 C"zprobe.in+zprobe.mod"

          Remove the +zprobe.mod part.

          Add the pull up as @engikeneer says.
