    My auto leveling limit switches are not working and the head of the printer is going down to far and impacting the bed! Everything was working before this and I printed a calibration block perfectly and now something messed up. Anyone have any ideas how to fix?

    Send M119 in terminal. Check all your connectors and make sure the switches report a closed circuit when you lift then off the carriage

    you can send m119. it will report switch position, then you can move around depressing (releasing w/e) 1 switch at a time to ensure all are working in both positions.
    they likely are... but loose wires are part of the fun.

    M119 reports open whether it's depressed or not. I can't find any lose connections.

    If one or the other switches is not pressed and it still reports open there's a lose connection somewhere that you need to find.
