Holy shit that thing sounds like it's from Star Wars or something. How much was the end build? Guessing a few grand?

Did you modify the marlin firmware to account for the prob location?Alright guys, I think its time to fix my printer and I need help! First off I have an Ender 3 Pro that is mainly stock. A while back I decided to add a bed leveling kit, so I got it from creality. That fried the main board, so then I got the new V4.2.7 board and wired the BL touch sensor correctly. I am pretty sure I got the firmware from Creality as well, but not 100% sure. Anyway, when I try to level the bed it will 0 out X and Y, then it moves the head out to the center and up 10mm then probes for the bed which is nowhere near it of course. Once that happens I cannot lower the head, only raise it. Even if I go up, I cant go back down. I have a feeling this is something in the firmware I need to eidt, but not sure where to start.
Any ideas on where to start? If you need any more information, just let me know. Thanks in advance guys!
This video is interesting in that he talks about the Z offset. I think that's where you neee to go with this to start. Otherwise if you have to do custom Marlin FW Configuration.h is the file you need to alter.
I have as of yet to install my BLTouch. Honestly bed leveling hasn't been a huge deal on my Sovol even before spring upgrades. What fried on your main board, was it during FW upgrading or was it the BLTouch was improperly wired?
I did that at some point, but I think the one thats on there now is just base creality for the new board with BL touch.Did you modify the marlin firmware to account for the prob location?

If/when I go though the firmware Ill check it. It seems like that offset is set to 10mm for some reason.What you're probably looking for is the Z probe offset height, which with the bltouch should be less than 3 mm if the bltouch is positioned above nozzle height by at least 3mm (retracted)
I dabbled, but should learn more. I have been spending all my time on the car though.Personally, learn to do the custom firmware. Once you do it a couple times, its so much easier to make changes to your machine and not have to modify the machine to work with the firmware.
