did you verify that the probe is correctly changing state when a chunk of steel is under it? https://os.ratrig.com/docs/configuration#verify-endstops-and-z-probe

They function as they should both show open when open, and triggered when the bed is within range

and you have the build plate(spring steel) on your bed?

correct

how much above is your probe from your nozzle tip?

currently it is below the nozzle tip, it was a marginal ammount (less than 1mm) above the nozzle tip initially I have seen the same behaviour regardless of the location of the probe

have you used SET_CENTER_KINEMATIC_POSITION ?

Yes, prior to all homing actions I have used that command
blacksmithforlife
that's your problem that command overrides the internal state

Let me hard reset real quick
blacksmithforlife
by using it, it is as if you have already homed and then moved everything to the middle of the range

Thanks so much, its doing a perfect homing sequence now. Thanks alot for all the help

be sure to adjust your probe back above your nozzle (I do a credit card in thickness difference) and then do a probe calibrate https://os.ratrig.com/docs/configuration#z-offset

will do. Thanks again Related error, Retries: 2/10 Probed points range: 0.882500 tolerance: 0.020000 I am getting a repeated Z Tilt Adjust error of Retries aborting: Probed points range is increasing. This is happening after 10 retries of the probed points, all of which have been consitantly out of range

Are you sure it is adjusting the correct Z motor? Z0 is front left, Z1 is rear, Z2 is front right. If you hooked them up to the wrong driver it will think it is adjusting one of them when really it is another and will never tilt adjust properly

Quite possible, that's what I was thinking. Once im done with what I'm doing I will verify the stepper wiring.

use the STEPPER_BUZZ command https://www.klipper3d.org/Config_checks.html#verify-stepper-motors Stepper_Buzz Stepper=stepper_z, and Stepper_Buzz Stepper=stepper_z1, and Stepper_Buzz Stepper=stepper_z2
