Z homing issue. Won't moves down or errors out (solved)

I’m having an issue. The machine (elite 48x48) was working good last night. No issues at all. This morning, I come in and it won’t z home. The first time, the machine didn’t give any issues or anything, it moved z (some), x, and then y to zero the machine.

But the z was homed at something like 1.38 (on the display)…

Since, then I cannot get the z axis to home at all. Even if it is started at the top of the movement at home, it move it down to 1.38 (on the display) and errors out.

I have no files loaded. I have turned the machine on and off a few different times. It does not matter where Z starts. It can be at the bottom or top of its travel and it is giving me an error (z-axis homing). If it starts the the top, then it moves the spindle down for some reason and then errors.

I can hear the motor engage, but then almost immediately errors.

Thoughts?

Figured it out. The z wire connector came loose.
