Just wanted to post an update to this solved problem. I went through all my files on this machine and could not find anything that might be causing issues. As a last ditch effort I grabbed a sheet of aluminum foil and flattened it out on the bed and ran a g29 command to generate a height map. the map looked a lot different than the one I had previously generated so I decided to try and do a test print with that height map. adjusted live z and it started to print perfectly.

I think the issue is the pinda 2 probe and the bed probe points with the MK 42 bed not triggering consistently. I am going to print for a while with the height map I made with the foil and will probably buy the MK 52 bed and a spring steel sheet to see if that gives more reliable leveling.

@fcwilt so I took that out and it is changing the z height now so great success there. However it doesn’t seem like it is correcting enough. That may be an issue with the pinda 2 I’m using so I’ll start looking there

It sometimes seems to be that mesh bed compensation is changing Z enough - though I can see the Z steppers moving tiny amounts.

Perhaps it is a speed issue and that some setting is preventing the Z steppers from changing fast enough to be at the correct height where the actual filament is being laid down?

I have no idea.

The status LED flashes slowly in all modes.

By slowly do you mean "Flashing steadily, about half a second off and half a second on" (normal operation), or "Fading from bright to dim and then back again" (USB bootloader activated)?
