@fcwilt I remove those statements and turns out I had the XY's not lined up with the z drivers and now it works great The only problem I'm having now and I was going to spend tomorrow messing with it is that my first test print the z-axis everything leveled at home that's wonderful but then it was 5 mm away from the bed so I'm sure I've got it some adjustments to do

We'll see if I get that far. I usually stop tweaking when I get an acceptable print. I'm largely going to be making jigs and stamps for leatherworking, but I hope to make some neat stuff out of NylonX -

Leadscrew adjustments made: -0.591 -1.472 -2.315, points used 3, (mean, deviation) before (-1.019, 0.476) after (0.000, 0.000)WooHoo!
Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it! I increased my M671 to 3mm, reading up on the mesh. -
RE: 3 Independent Z Motors - Trouble with Autolevel
@engikeneer thanks! I found the M671 just as you replied....lol. Is there any reason to not increase that to 5mm?
I'm reading up on the heightmap and mesh, thanks for the links!

Success! Sort of...

RE: 3 Independent Z Motors - Trouble with Autolevel
@engikeneer Thanks, I'll work with that when I get home. I have to do some reading about height map it seems....no idea what it does.

RE: 3 Independent Z Motors - Trouble with Autolevel
One thing just hit me....I'm not sure the G30 P#'s in the bed.g correspond to the driver assignments in config.g, could it be that simple?

RE: 3 Independent Z Motors - Trouble with Autolevel
I do not have the exact bed file here at work, the only difference is the X,Y's are different than what I am posting here. I can post the exact file later today. Just a reminder as you look through this, everything works EXCEPT autolevel. G30 will home the z axis, and the probe works as intended.
Thanks!

RE: 3 Independent Z Motors - Trouble with Autolevel
@fcwilt no endstops for the z, just the BLTouch. Not sure why I get the error, "G28 Z endstop not enabled". I didn't define an endstop in the config tool, just the probe. And G30 works like a charm.
