Yes, it seems it's a production error, according to that video, the wiring should be reversed. Sad indeed.

You can only connect this cable one way.

I bought it because it came with the mounting bracket and a nice long cable... looking back I wish I'd of not got the cable lol. Here's a photo with the correct wiring

For background I am using a Duet2 Wifi board and I cut this cable up and wired it into the Duet3d board using the guide in the link I provided. The mistake was in assuming the color code for the BLTouch wires was standard. Apparently it's not standard.

I should not have assumed the color schemes would be standard. I thought I'd make a post to maybe save someone's BLTouch in the future with similar cables.

Yes the kit in that link, the second image down I believe. Ender 3 v2

Check again this color scheme is correct but it's reversed end to end. It's not the BLTouch itself but the cable that was sent with it. The BLTouch was fine but the cable sent has the color scheme backwards.

As you can see in the image, the wiring for this cable is completely ass backwards. So any wiring guides https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Connecting_a_Z_probe#Section_BLTouch here can be thrown out the window. I burnt my BLTouch because I followed this guide using this connector assuming the color coding scheme was correct. Only later did I realize the whole color scheme was reversed. It took a while to even find out what pins were what as I could not find a single wiring diagram for the BLTouch (in terms of pins). But sure at the end of the day it's my mistake for foolishly assuming people who create the color schemes know what they're doing. Not gunna lie this feels like some sneaky sabotage for Duet users, why on earth would you use a similar color coding and reverse the wires. It seems that if you get this particular BLTouch (Sold by creality with the Creality Logo and all) with this particular cable which was meant for the Creality Ender 3 v2 then you're going to get ass backwards wiring.
