    It will always go away from home if it thinks it is already home/triggered

    Fix the switch or wire/connection. Those are the most likely problems. If manually pressing the switch and releasing it does not make the M119 report different states for the switch when it is open or closed then that is the problem.

    There is a slim chance it is the ramps or arduino. Wiring or switch would be my bet
