Also forgot to add, that the z Trigger now works but x Doesn't so it's the Board??

You might want to check your configuration.h settings for:

const bool X_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = false; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Y_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = false; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = false; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool X_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Y_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Z_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop

It looks like the logic is backwards. I think the way you have yours configured versus how the switches are wired is backwards. But I'll let PrintBus see if that is true.

Yes, the settings were/are inverted. I was taking advantage of that in seeing how things were reading with no switches pressed. For now let's get the connections straightened out and then we can correct the inversion.

it's currently set to :

const bool X_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Y_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool X_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Y_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Z_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.

and there isnt any markings on the board, but it is set up to X, Y and then Z in that order from left to right starting on the furthest left pins

made that change in the config as roxy said, getting this:
x_min: TRIGGERED
x_max: TRIGGERED
y_min: open
y_max: open
z_min: TRIGGERED
z_max: open

Careful here! That wasn't a code suggestion. That was a cut and paste of my settings!!! I just wanted you to know what I was talking about!!!

Post some pictures of your board or links to it with the stepper drivers removed. Pictures of your stepper driver boards too. Pictures in general can lead to solutions, people will spot wires wrong and stuff that we can't get form your descriptions.

While unplugging everything and plugging it back it i found a couple of end stops in the wrong place, will test now

[jakers181008]

x_min: TRIGGERED
x_max: open
y_min: open
y_max: open
z_min: open
z_max: open


now i'm getting this, all of the other switches work, part from x, the just stays triggered....


also the motors now move park from x for obvious reasons

Hi guys been a very busy week but now working on the printer again,


I have sorted out the switch, it was a simple connector fault, replacing fixed that.


now just the X motor just makes a juddering noise sort of like a machine gun. i've increased the voltage a tiny bit but still not working, must be something to do with the acceleration? also the extruder is doing the same. just the jittering is much slower? i need to get another feeder thingy, the one that drips onto the filament and pushes it down. will go buy that today :/ didn't last long, saying that i haven't even been able ti use the motor to drip the filament :/
