Z Endstop Wiring Issue

I am having an occurring issue where I fail the selftest during the Z endstop check. I was somehow able to get it to work and was able to print the batman symbol but now the issue has returned. I cannot calibrate the Z-axis because of this and from there I can't do anything. Could the probe or board be damaged? Please help.

Most like the RAMBo connector is not homed or one of the sires has come adrift inside the connector.

Take the connector out, check that all 3 pins are fully inserted into the plastic connector housing and plus back into the RAMBo. Ensure you get the "click".

Thanks for the advice, Peter. However, it did not work. 🙁

I made sure the pins were attached and touching the ones on the board and still nothing.

Is there anything else I can try short of buying a new probe?
