#define X_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER 20.35
#define Y_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -11.75

Before you start G29, did you do the 3 steps? Only you finished them can the G29 working!
1) Define the final Z axis height;
2)Check the status of endstop;
3)Define the Z_PROBE_OFFSET:Put down the prob. Manualy move the print head down slowly, place the probe at the center of the print bed. When you hear the trigger of the endstop, you can get the coordinate on the Repetier host ,it is 【-20.35,11.75,0.3】
