E3Pro auto home malfunctioning

Well, Martin and Aardvark, you must be gluttons for punishment, but if you're still game, I'll HAPPILY follow you! Now I'll be referring to your 4-20 posts and pray you can understand which of my comments/questions apply to your individual post. The board I removed from the Ender 3 Pro was a V1.1.4 and I replaced it with a Creality V 4.2.7 (still in there). Aardvark, you last asked if I had tried flashing the old board with a fresh copy of the firmware I was using--No, I didn't. And Martin, you suggested the FOCALISE post calling for 'Ender-3 Pro_4.2.2_Firmware_Marlin2.0.1 - V1.0.1.bin' firmware, which sounds good to me. I am willing to re-install the old V1.1.4 board and flash with the suggested 4.2.2 firmware--does that make sense, flashing a V1.1.4 board with V4.2.2 firmware? (Shows how dismal my thinking is!) Is that a reasonable next step? An aside, condolences for Prince Philip--he will be missed. Also, everyone I know supports GB's EU divorce--I just hope the current DC mob running (sic!) our country will fully support you as Trump stated he would do.

Board numbers are good. Maybe hold off on flashing firmware for a sec.
Looks like that board should have come with firmware pre-installed. https://www.creality3dofficial.com/p...inboard-v4-2-7

Try flashing the suitable firmware from here (probably Ender-3 Pro- 4.2.7-TMC2225 Marlin2.0.1 – V1.0.1 )https://forums.creality3dofficial.co...s/ender-3-pro/

Then let us know what happened.

Aardvark, why do you think the endstops are working? "Raise, pause (sense), raise" is a common indication that the Z-endstop is permanently triggered on.
