@Phaedrux got it. I will look for Both in Cura. No big issue except the speed is shaking everything. Still prints well I am guessing due to the box frame of the 5+ but I think I can slow it down a bit.
The mesh bed I have set 0-330 for x and y and set it at 30mm increments this past run. Was using 60mm before. It probes a lot and takes quite some time to complete at that rate. But it still had issues printing in a certain area.
So I am having much better success now. Part of my bed is causing issue but I have been able to move my prints away from that area. I am getting good prints now. I am sure there could be some fine tuning still but happy
I have a couple of questions. First, after my first layer, my inner wall prints are very fast. Outer wall layers seem to be slow however Not sure what setting is causing that. Does not seem to be in Cura. Second, is there any trick to work the mesh bed better? I would think that would solve my bed issues but it is not. Thirdly. I get a error that shows up all the time. Not sure why or how to stop it. I guess it’s not a big issue cause I am able to print but wanted to ask. Pic
Pic of successful prints. Notice I am only printing a few at a time cause of print bed issues are confining me.
Well I will rerun my estep test again. Just making that change did not help much on my last ear save prints I did. Sloppy (looks to be too much extrusion) brims and lifting. And that is with my lower estep setting. I reduced the brim width and ran the print at 80% flow rate and it was cleaner but much too thin of a print. I am beginning to think I may never get this thing printing the way it was before all these “upgrades” lol.
here is the current config.gconfig (6).g
Thanks again. My extruder is the Hemera that has a base estep of 409. I don’t get it how much difference there is each time I run it. This time it calculates very close to 409. But I think I noticed something on my cura settings. I think my nozzle size was set wrong. I know that did not account for my estep difference but could for my test square. Odd thing is I ran another print at the 409 and 410 esteps and bother we’re letting out too much. I changed to the 397 and printed this. Nice thicker fused walls at just 100%. But still a little stringing I set my retraction at 1.25mm and speed at 70mm/s in Cura. Not positive my setting are right in cura as the retract rate goes orange if I enter something over 70. Not positive of my travel speed. I was increasing it throughout the below test and it did not seem to change the stringing at all. 
But I then printed a 40mm test cube. Fairly happy with it except for some lifting on 2 sides because it did not adhere to the bed.
This read as 40mm exactly
.3 mm off here but not bad. Other side is 39.9
Thank you soooo much for your help. I am getting close. I ran thru all the test and tunes. One issue is my first calculation of me esteps was adding esteps. My second subtracted. 421. To 397. But I have made changes in between these measurements. Also a bigger issue I think is the mesh bed compensation. I would level my bed manually and think it is good. But then do the mesh bed compensation and adjust the bed so that was more level. Well I deleted the mesh bed recording and just used the manual leveling. That was the big key to successful first layer. Which is concerning because then there seems no use for my z probe. Why is this?
Well I ran the test on the link you mentioned and was getting it to print. Pics below. It took me about 160% before my walls began to fuse together. Does this indicate my esteps are still wrong? 160% seems like a lot. Also you can see a lot of stringing which I would like suggestions on how to resolve.
And is this warping of the walls common?
Pics coming as soon as I am able to get this to work
I have my printer printing but I have issues still. Something is not right. Having a hard time just getting a brim laid down. But issue to me seems to be my extruder. One issue is it continues to let filament out while hot but not printing. It’s slow but always happens. And when I begin printing, there is quite a bit of passes where no filament comes out. Then it starts to come out. It prints a few passes and then the nozzle catches the laid down portion and everything gets snarled into a birds nest. I’m almost there but what should I be looking at? I found a retraction and jerk setting of someone else’s to use but does not seem to do anything.

that looks good. here again a re crimp and all is good. ugh I moved it before and worked correctly on Fan 1 but must have just been lucky then and when I moved it back no go. So I need no other code to have slicer control the speed?
I have got my bed fairly level by running the Mesh Bed Comp many times and adjusting the bed manually between passes. Not sure what True Bel Level feature is compared to it. But I think I am getting close to setting up Cura and printing a test. anything else i am missing?
that did not work not turning on. Is my Config g good? am I missing something?
I have homing working, Heaters working and tuned, extruder working (not yet done estep calibration), z probe calibrated and true z=0 dialed in. One thing that I think I still have an issue is my parts cooling fan. I know the fan itself physically works when I wire it to the same port that the hot end fan is config too. But not sure it is working as it should as a parts cooling fan and not positive how to test. the Test Fan buttons do nothing. The always on fan works as well.
confg files. not positive what others are needed
That was the issue. I re crimped and now working again. ugh this is going to kill me but I am going to get this thing printing LOL
@Phaedrux the y axis is not getting anywhere near the endstop switch. the first thing it done when I hit Home y is move forward, or away from the switch.
using what you provided, I see switch 2 as Yes or triggered when it should not. I press the physical switch and it still says Yes. so back to looking at the wiring
well I removed the H2 and that still does the same thing but now freezes up so I can't go onto Home z.
here are some of the g files I just downloaded. I cant see anything that was changed from it was before when it was working nicely
config (3).g homeall (3).g homex (1).g homey (2).g homez (1).g
@Phaedrux well that does not help me fully cause the OEM of the other 2 switches only had 2 wires. This filament cable has 3 so of the black red and yellow, which do I leav out... I am guessing the Red as I assume that would be for power and would provide the light that is on the sensor. you happen to know if its a simple high or simple low switch?
It was working just fine. The Y axis would go backwards to the Y end stop. stop them move forward just a bit and them back again slowly to trigger it again. But for some reason it stopped doing that and now at home y instead of going back to find the endstop it just moves forward a small bit and stops. calling that then the now y = 0
I have it on its side right now and checking the cabling to see if that came off.
Any chance you know the wiring paramaters of the Ender 5 plus filament sensor. Would like to wire that up to the EO Endstop while I have it opened up. Trying to find the info on the web.
Here is my current Homey.g
G91 ; relative positioning
G1 H2 Z5 F6000 ; lift Z relative to current position
G1 H1 Y-335 F3000 ; move quickly to Y axis endstop and stop there (first pass)
G1 H2 Y5 F6000 ; go back a few mm
G1 H1 Y-335 F300 ; move slowly to Y axis endstop once more (second pass)
G1 H2 Z-5 F6000 ; lower Z again
G90 ; absolute positioning
Ugh I was thinking I was almost there. I played around with my leveling wheels on my ender 5+ to try to get a good starting point with my beb compensation as it was quite a bit off after doing a true leveling sequence and Mesh bed compensation. Well not sure why but all of a sudden my Home Y is acting up. It does not fall back and find the end stop, it jumps forward maybe 5mm and then calls that spot Y=0 when it clearly is not. I looked at my config g and Home y and I see nothing odd. Since I saw I could manually set Z to 0 with M564 and G92, I tried that to fix it and it did not work. Sorry I am asking for help again but I really thought I would be able to get printing this evening. ugh.

M558 P9 C"^zprobe.in" H5 F120 T4000
well the home Z with the new m558 code did not work but when I used the original m558 it did probe good. but it actually did the probe 3 times. Twice at the slow speed it appeared.
