@mac said in I could use some help:
@fcwilt I just ran M119 again, it's reporting: X not stopped, Y not stopped, Z at min stop, Z probe not stopped.
OK let's leave Z for now and test X and Y.

@fcwilt I'm going to test the X endstop, and then the Y endstop. Please wait for my report.
-
@mac
I'm not going anywhere.

@fcwilt okay, here are the results: with X endstop pressed down, M119 reports X at min stop. With Y endstop pressed down, M119 reports Y at min stop.
Interestingly, M119 continues to report Z at min stop even though I'm NOT pressing it down?

; Axis Limits M208 X0 Y0 Z0 S1 ; set axis minima M208 X220 Y220 Z240 S0 ; set axis maxima -
@fcwilt are the S0 and S1 reversed?

No they are correct.
But, just FYI, there is a simpler form of M208 (at least I think it is simpler)
M208 X0:220 Y0:220 Z0:240
Notice no S0 or S1.
The number before the : character is the min value for the axis specified by the letter.
The number after the : character is the max value for the axis specified by the letter.
I find it easier to remember "min then max" rather then "is it S0 or S1".
That's just me.

@fcwilt for a moment I was confused as to where the 0 was, i.e., the number before the "colon" is . . . .
But I figured it out!
-
@fcwilt so where do these responses put us?

We are still need to test the X and Y endstop switches to see what M119 reports when a switch is pressed or not pressed.

@fcwilt with X depressed, X is at min stop, everything else is as it has been.
With Y depressed, Y is at min stop, everything else is as it has been.
-
@fcwilt the Z-endstop is still saying it's at the min stop.
-
@fcwilt Z must be wrong, don't you think?

Fantastic.
So we know the X and Y endstop are working.
But the Z is not. It should do the same as the X and Y.
Please do this - from the DWC console execute M574 by itself - it should report how each endstop is configured.

6/27/2022, 9:17:19 AM M574 Endstop configuration: X: low end switch connected to pin !io5.in Y: low end switch connected to pin !io6.in Z: low end switch connected to pin io2.in -
@fcwilt something about that doesn't look right?

So it says the Z endstop is configured on the low end, is connected to io2.in and does not have the ! character because the white wire is connected to the NO connection on the switch.
But it seems that pressing or not pressing the Z endstop switch doesn't change what M119 reports.
Did you verify that the Z endstop switch is still plugged onto the IO2 connector?

@mac are you sure z endstop is connected to io2? Check with wiring diagram. https://docs.duet3d.com/Duet3D_hardware/Duet_3_family/Duet_3_Mini_5+_Hardware_Overview#wiring-diagram

@droftarts hey's baaaaaaaaaccccccccckkkkkkk
I just moved the white wire on the 5 pin io2 connector from io2_out to io2_in, The green wire is still in the center of the connector / connected to GND.

Well that certainly should make a difference.
Please run the M119 tests with the Z endstop switch pressed and not pressed.
