    When I try the automatic probe plus command the bit keeps moving over to the electrical connector and the z wants to crush it unless I abort it. The spindle is a 1.5kw air cooled spindle so I turned the power off and disconnected the main spindle wire to rule out emi issues but it keeps on wanting to do the same thing.

    There was a bug in versions <1.0.284 (discussed here V1.0.283 Error when probing ) that causes it to move the probe weirdly, so I'll ask you to double check that the top toolbar shows 1.0.284?

    Make a video please, showing what happens?
    1) Are you sure your cartesian coordinates are correct (X+ moves too to the right, Y+ moves tool away from you, Z+ lifts tool up)
    2) Wiring OK - VFDs can introduce ground loop faults
    3) Make a quick video showing what happens
    4) Include a copy of the Serial log with the video
    5) Only AUTO? Does XYZ probe, Z probe, X and Y, etc all work?
