How did you level the bed? Each time I press home, my print head goes all the way to the end rail and try to keep going until I turn off the power.

<p>I have some issue with my BLTouch (I'm new to bed levelling) :
I compiled Marlin 2.x (for my SKR 1.3) for a Antclabs BLTouch, and everytime I power on the printer, it shows this error message: <code>Failed to enable Bed Leveling, echo Bed Levelling off, echo : Fade Height 0, FF, ok</code>:</p>

<p>The LED of the BLTouch is on, I can still deploy and stow the pin, and do "levelling ABL" but Homing Z (for example) is not working.
I linked the config.h and config_adv.h in case needed below:</p>
