Well this is a major screw-up , the wireing harness that goes to the Z-axis end stop is 10 cm to short .
I have lots of breadboard jumpers so i just used 3 x 10cm ones I had on hand but not everyone has these .
The build platform can get jamed , or just unplug the endstop .
I hnow it is a easy fix , and for 299.00 USD this printer is still very good bang for your buck .
This problem is a strange one and , as this is a DIY kit , most if not all people who buy this assemble it them selfs .
As a DIYkit the instructions on youtube are excellent .
It could be a one off problem with the wiring harness as this printer uses a custom wireing harness but daam what a pissoff .

As far as I know, the end-stops wire of X, Y, Z are 1000,600.350mm.
Do you have a good connection?
