Thanks for the info, i've replaced the firmware with the one from the one i downloaded from the hictop site and was able to fix the Z motion so it now moves correctly.
I can't seem to be able to upload a zip from my marlin 1.1.8 firmware folder but, i've put my configuration.h file into a txt that i'm attaching here.
If you have any pointers, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I do not see a Marlin 1.1.8 Configuration.h file attached file is for a much older version.

I was able to figure out that my offset is .2. The strange thing is that when i do a bed level from my printer's menu, it probes 15 points and then if i do a test print, it scrapes the bed on one side. As if it didn't take into account that the bed was a bit higher on that side. Am i missing a line of code to tell it to adjust with the bed level it just did?
Thanks

I save the bed leveling data (I know Bi-Linear bed leveling is not supported)
Although it works as the save routine does not know the difference.
Level the bed Click Menu "Control" Select "Store Settings" or Save using M500.
In you Slicer program add a line to turn the Bed Level data ON, This must be placed after the Last G92
Too verify the bad level data is saved send a M420 V1 ; to print the leveling grid.
G92 E0 ;reset extruder length
M420 S1 ; Bed Leveling On
;M420 V1 ; Print the leveling grid

Bed Level must be done in the start up G-Code to work correctly
after the Last G92 you can add a G29 ;Bed leveling command
I find this takes forever so I save the data using M500 and Restore using M420 S1 ; Bed Leveling On
This way I only need to do a bed level if the bed level gets messed up or One a week, bi weekly or ect............

Sorry for the delay in responding but, had other priorities.
I did all that but, now it seems like the filament will not come out of my new boden extruder.
I found out i had to push the tube all the way into the extruder or else the pla would soften too much.
It's like the pla just wont't go through. If i take a strand of pla and push it through without the boden tube, it does extrude but, not with the boden tube attached and the feed pushing the filament.
Please explain to me how to...
