endstops doesn't react to switches
Hi, I've got strange problem. I've bought new switches identical to switches which came with the kit. I've soldered them the same way like original switches. I checked if they are working with multimeter and when I click on switch, connection opens perfectly. I've connected them to octopus v1.1 so ground pin connects with signal pin when switch is pressed. When i click the switch klipper doesn't detect it, but when I short ground and signal pins on board it shows that endstop is pressed. I don't know what can cause this. Please help me.

these are 2 configs that i tried and none of them works with a switch

do i need to install these jumpers for it to work?
no, stallguard is for when you do sensorless homing

I also checked cables and they have connection with board
just to double check - you are holding down the switch while pressing the refresh button on endstop state?

yes I am
if it is working with a jumper but not with the switch maybe the crimped connections are not seating properly in the connector. So when you put it into the port it is not not connected correctly to the board

Is this wiring ok?

while the coloring doesn't match, it seems that the wires go to the right connection

Ok, so this thing that switch is soldered to is either broken or was made with wrong connection. Pin where red wire(signal) goes doesn't have connection to anything. I noticed that when I looked at connections under solder mask and after checking it with multimeter it indeed doesn't have connection
Middle pin has connection to left and right pin on switch
Right pin has connection with middle
