Z bed will not go up

I am using an omtech 80w. My z bed was going up and down fine yesterday. Today it will not go up. I read to check the diagnosis page. That shows z+ NOT activated and z- activated. Is this why? How can I fix it. Z moves are activated in device settings.

If that’s the home switch at the top of the Z axis travel, then the controller will refuse to move the platform higher. In that case, you should be able to move the platform lower.

The switch may have an LED indicator inside to show it’s triggered, like the one shown in this post:

Lowering the platform should turn that light off and the controller “diagnosis” screen should show the Z- switch is inactive.

With the switch inactive, you should be able to raise the platform to that limit.

If the switch stays active no matter where the platform is, it may be stuck or defective, depending on whether you find anything jammed in (or on) it.
