Mesh bed leveling firmware values not taking effect

After I got my MK3S working I decided to modify my MK2S. I put a 300x300 bed on it. I then modified the firmware to see the larger bed. That worked fine but the MBL was using the original 9 points (6,35 to 238,202). I changed the firmware again to change the MBL rectangle to fit the larger bed (6,35 to 290,290). After reloading the firmware MBL was still using the original 9 points. Any ideas why this is happening?  One other change that I made was to activate the EEPROM setting in the firmware (I also tried without the EEPROM being active). 

Thanks in advance for any help

I’m confused. I’m new to this forum. I did post this to the MK2S forum. It says

English Forum > Original Prusa I3 MK2/S > Hardware, Firmware > Mesh Bed Leveling Firmware

Where else should I put it?

RE: Mesh bed leveling firmware values not taking effect

The MK2S MBL uses 9 small pads embedded in the heated bed to trigger the PINDA probe. If you have removed the MK42 bed with those 9 pads then you have disabled PINDA bed levelling and need to install a BL Touch or similar mechanical system to replace it. Your firmware will have to be modified to suit.

BTW You are in the right forum - guess Tim was put off by the opening mention of a MK3S working.
