Hello everyone, I have a odd issue. I dont think it is a firmware but I am not sure where the problem is coming from. I dont have any endstops working. I am using the Acrylic Geeetech I3 pro 3D printer DIY kit. I have not been able to get the endstops to ever work on it, I reloaded the firmware to make sure that wasnt the issue but they still do not work. I am have the gt2560 board and I have tried to switch the plugs to the endstop max socket but still nothing. could the issue possible be my board? any suggestions is greatly appreciated .
the firmware i am using is on this forum page.

for anyone that may be having the same issue, I had a bad board. I purchased a new one and everything works fine.

yes, all my end stops were not working. regardless of the firmware and replacement end stops, the board would not recognize them. a new board fixed it. the previous board was bad from the beginning. I was never able to get one print off of it.

How do you test the endstops, if you press the endstop down should that stop the movement?
thanks,

Yes, press the endstop when homing the motor will stop and regard the position as zero coordinates.
