    Sounds good. Will try to keep an eye out for the update. Sorry not finding any good pictures of the Pi board but I believe the runout wires are at the back of that header (when looking at the front of the R2) if they arnt that little widget will throw all sorts of fits.

    So here is what the sensor looks like. Will try and figure out how it goes back in to make sure it is correct.

    Well, that sure doesn't look like mine. Unless it is at an odd angle or something.

    So I took off the black box on the back and say where the filament goes through and there is a I tiny line that matches up with the two dots furthers from the cable on the side of that big screw in the middle. I did my best to line it up and I am going to try again.
