You don’t mention if you have a BLTouch installed or not, so I’ll assume you don’t…

Make sure the correct firmware you’re running is from:

> **[Ender 3 V2 - v4.2.2 Board - Stock - Marlin Firmware Service](https://marlin.crc.id.au/firmware/Ender%203%20V2%20-%20v4.2.2%20Board%20-%20Stock/)**
>
> Custom Marlin firmware for a Ender 3 V2 - v4.2.2 Board - Stock - 3D Printer, built daily to stay fresh.

You can’t use G29 without an BLTouch, so it would make sense that doesn’t work.

It’s also worth triple checking that you have a v4.2.2 mainboard via the silk screen printing on the mainboard.

My Apologies, Yes I have the BL Touch Installed and am using the following Firmware “Ender3-V2-BLTouch-20220715.bin” Along with the DWIN\_SET Files from the Repository for LCD Controller.

Just to rule something out - have you tried the MarlinUI builds?

MarlinUI 15JUL2022 would not load to my system using any format or SD Card, The CrealityUI Version would load using file from 15JUL2022 but no USB Connectivity. I tried downloading multiple times.  
I downloaded the 16JUL2022 MarlinUI Version today, with same SD Cards + Formatting, was able to successfully load the firmware and connect via USB.  
Maybe just a bad file?  
Regardless I am back online, Thank you for your time.
