Hi all, my Duet 2 Wifi 1.04c started throwing an error yesterday

I have unplugged the extruder motor cable and replugged it but it didn't make a difference. The extruder is a Bondtech BMG-X2 that was hooked up to drivers 3+4. Here is a photo of the drivers with the cables detached
Sorry the image quality isn't great, i was the best i was able to do. I believe i see damage on the chip for driver 3 which would indicate that the chip itself is broken.

The cables are the ones that came with the extruder and have worked fine before this so i don't think it is a wiring issue.
I read many posts talking about short-to-ground errors and they suggest wiring or stepper problems. I believe the wiring is ok as stated above. The stepper works fine if i plug it into driver 4 so i don't think that is the issue either. I bought the Duet from Matterhackers in March 2021 so i think it is still under warranty but i am not sure if this is covered.

Also, here is the config.g:

@jlimburg Well, here goes, i am wearing my silly hat! I had the wires switched on the sensor, switching output and ground. Interesting that the sensor LED still lit up. Fixed it, sensor works, Z-Probe now show 0 when the bed is away and 798 when the sensor LED comes on. Sorry for wasting people's time

@fcwilt Thanks for sharing the link! I'll order a couple from them

@fcwilt Thanks, i tried that, unfortunately it made no difference. I am starting to think my sensor is faulty. I'll order another one and try that.

Hi all, and apologies if this has already been answered. I believe i did a thorough search but may have missed something.
I connected an inductive sensor to my Duet Wifi, revision 1.04C running firmware 3.3, VIN 24V. The sensor is a NPN NO with 6-36V. I connected the wires according to the wiki, brown and black to VIN / Ground, respectively, and blue to the Z probe input pin in the Z Probe terminal.

Here are my FW settings:
; Endstops
M574 X1 S1 P"xstop" ; configure switch-type (e.g. microswitch) endstop for low end on X via pin xstop
M574 Y1 S1 P"ystop" ; configure switch-type (e.g. microswitch) endstop for low end on Y via pin ystop
M574 Z1 S2 ;P"zstop" ; configure Z-probe endstop for low end on Z

; Z-Probe
M558 P1 C"!zprobe.in" H5 F300 T6000
G31 P7 X100 Y100 Z-0

I tried M558 with P5 as described in the wiki but that just shows '0' in the Z Probe field no matter if the probe LED is on or not. If i use P1 i at least get something, the Z Probe indictor show 6-7 when warm (?) so i can trigger on 7 and that works. The issue is that the 6-7 value is not reliable, on startup it show 30-50 and then slowly wanders down to 6, sometimes 7 even when there is no proximity to the bed.
My Z-Probe output is connected directly, no diode or resistors since i have 1.04C they should not be required.

I measured the Z-Probe output with a multimeter and it has 0V when there is no proximity to the bed and 0.5V when the bed is near and the probe LED is on.

Any help with this would be appreciated!
