      Hi guys, I have a peculiar issue. Homing one axis changes the position of the other axis. Example when I home the Y axis (which goes to Y=0), the position for the Z in the DWC changes (if it was 0.3 it may jump to 0.41 etc.)

      What can be causing this? I am using a Precision Piezo with nozzle as probe.

      Here is my firmware version

        Can you post your config.g and homing files?

                  Forum says I'm a newbie so I have to wait one minute before posts 🙄

                    I guess you could have put them all into one post. But I guess that's one way to get your post count up. 😄

                        Are you using mesh grid bed compensation?

                            Try disabling it and see if it behaves the same. Just a hunch but maybe it's not applying correction during homing moves, keeping the z fixed, but it still knows the height based on the height map and displays the actual height.

                              I believe you are right. Disabling mesh does not change the Z value.

                              Thanks!
