    Hello, i started connect my limit switches to blackbox, but x and y axis not triggering then i press by hand. With z axis works perfectly. All wiring are same. All switches working fine i tested on z axis witch works. Any ideas?

    If you plug the working Z switch into X and Y respectively as a test?

    Ps on wiring, couple stripped a little far back, exposed conductors are an invite for future shorts. Snip off spare blue wire too... Double check SIG wire on non working ones, onboard LED working shows that GND and V+ is present, if SIG isn't making its way back, recheck SIG wire

    Allready tested working Z on X and Y still not working. i switched working Z switch with that same wiring on to X and Y ports still nothing. i think can be openbuilds itself dead inside?

    Would be odd if it is, endstops are very simple, but sure, please do check in with the store via Support > New Ticket
