    Firstly why are you flashing firmware? (if its a damaged controller, failing to connect, it also won't come back from a firmware flash).

    Controllers are preflash from the factory

    That's incorrect Grbl Settings. You somehow changed/wiped your Grbl Settings.

    Load your backup you took when it was all working well from Grbl Settings > Restore backup > Select the backup file you saved somewhere safe when everyting was till fine

    If you forget to backup, then you are in for setting it up from scratch like you did the first time (and then remember to backup for next time)

    Firmware update not the solution

    CONTROL > Grbl Settings tab.
    If its one of our machines, select machine from list > save and reset when prompted

    If its a custom machine, you've gone through setting it up once before, mainly figuring out your parameters. Use nearest similar machine (or the CUSTOM profile) and modify accordingly Grbl v1.1 Configuration (also on the Grbl Settings tab)

    Use the lead 1515 profile and shorten the 1000mm axis you have by 500mm (x or y whichever is shorter)
