Using the shielded wire definitely helped!

Bryce,
If this is a typical micro switch you can move one wire and use the N/C set of
contacts and that is the prefered way to connect a limit switch. Then change
back to
Both Limit + Home and when you start up if you get joint 0 limit switch error
(and
your not sitting on the limit switch)

Could it be noise on the line?
If there is noise, you will be able to see it in halscope. You should
set halscope up to trigger on it and let halscope run while you jiggle
the wiring etc.
may need screening from stepper wires and also are you pulling it up
when open to guarantee a 1

Subject: [Emc-users] Homing noise/ limit switch question?
I just installed a homing/limit switch to try it out. It is a NO switch.
I loaded up the stepconf and put that it was a X axis home and limit switch.
When I started it up I got joint 0 limit switch

I believe it is better to have the limit switches to be NC because it is
more common that the
