I have my end stop cables plugged directly into the nighthawk board on my tool head and plug them into the leviathan in the locations the documentation indicates.
When I turn it on, klipper can't find the leviathan. If I unplug the end stop cables from the leviathan and turn it on, it boots just fine, recognizing the leviathan.
I'm not sure what the problem could be.

Ok, why are you plugging it in like that?
Both are the same port. One end in the endstop port (either the nitehawk OR the levathian), one end to the endstop itself.

According to this documentation, I'm supposed to plug the Y endstop and X endstop in the corresponding ports:
https://docs.ldomotors.com/en/voron/voron2/wiring_guide_rev_d
One end plugs into the nighthawk and the other two ends plug into the leviathan. From what I understand
I'm obviously misunderstanding

But it doesn't say anything about plugging it in the nitehawk. It plugs into the endstop pod from the leviathan.

It says to plug the XY Endstop into the nighthawk, then plug XES and YES into leviathan. That's why I'm confused

That picture is just the generic nitehawk one, IF you want to use those. By default they aren't used.
Where does it say to plug into the nitehawk?
I'm not seeing it.

Good question. I just assumed to plug it into the nighthawk based on the diagram I just posted
And according to this, the X Stop and Y Stop cables come from the back of the printer where the cables are routed down
So I just assumed that the End stop cable is supposed to be plugged into the nighthawk then routed down to these corresponding ports
Where do you have the endstop cables plugged into the leviathan?

No, the part you are putting in the nitehawk goes in the endstop port.

Which port is the endstop port on the Leviathan?

Like the document says, and the picture shows above.

The plugs in the picture are only 3-pin ports. The plug I have has 4 pins
It has 4 pins on one side and two 3-pin plugs on the other side
There's only one 4-pin port left on the board and that's for another driver

The 4 pin port goes to the endstop PCB pod. The two three pin ports go to the levathian like shown.
The endstop pcb is a 100% different PCB that's in the PCB bag in the electronics box.
At least I belive that's the bag it's in.

I think I know what PCB you're talking about. Let me see if I can find it.
It's just confusing because there are a bunch of different sources of documentation. Some of them are outdated. So I have to sort through them all
This one?

Page 163 of the current 2.4 install manual.
Yes, that one.

For some reason I assumed it would be sensorless homing and that I didn't need the switches. Which is why I plugged it into the nighthawk
Pretty sure this is my problem
Thanks for the quick response!

I mean, you can ignore all of that and set up sensorless if you want.
Just don't plug in the cable nor put the endstop pod on.

Just don't...
She's alive! Thanks again for your help. This build was much more involved than I was expecting.
She's not ready to print yet, but I'm glad she boots

Good thing is, I got LDO to already add a note on the rev d wiring guide that the endstop ports on the Nitehawk aren't used.
