XYZ calibration is successful, but getting a sensor error when trying to print v2calibration

The selftest and XYZ calibration both run successfully (XYZ returns 'XYZ calibration ok. X/Y axes are perpendicular').

I have the top of the PINDA probe level with the cable guide, and when I run Auto Home I can fit 1 sheet of paper under the nozzle but 2 sheets is a tight fit.

Next I try to print the v2calibration using the PLA spool that came with the kit, but the print fails when it checks the 9 points and returns 'Bed leveling failed. Sensor didn’t trigger. Debris on nozzle? Waiting for reset'.

Any ideas???

I wanted to add, I don't see any debris or filament on the nozzle.

Make sure that the bottom of the PINDA probe is approximately 0.75mm above the nozzle. If it is too high, the probe won't register. Make 1/3rd or 1/2 turns only as you get close on your adjustments.

I can definitely lower the probe a little, I'm just surprised it would pass the XYZ and then immediately afterwards fail to print with that error.

I've had this exact issue. Lowering the probe by 1 corner of the top nut fixed it.

Dimensions PNG

and an 8 inch (200mm) or greater caliper is recommended.
