Yes. Got it.
Tomorrow I will get all the wire info from encoders and motors e-stop, home, floating head and all that. I will need the mapping of these wires to the mesa, the thc board and the box we got with the z motor. If you can take some time to put all this into a simple schematic that would be great. Or something like a simple list saying this wire from encoder goes to pin 7 of mesa breakout board.

Haven't had the time to help my friend with this lately.
We did some checking yesterday and we will be looking into those wires more closely tomorrow.

Back on track guys ! How are you doing?
So we checked the Z motor side.
Z motor => 2 wires (blue/brown)
Up/Down control => 3 wires (yellow/brown/bleu)
End Stop Up/Down => 4 wires
Collision detection => 4 wires

All these guys go to the box behind the z motor.
Where do these guys go on the mesa board or on the computer side?
I will add some pics.
We will remove the z motor tomorrow.

Z motor => 2 wires (blue/brown) <<<<<Nowhere, new wires to the new motor
Up/Down control => 3 wires (yellow/brown/bleu) <<<<<<< Not used
End Stop Up/Down => 4 wires <<<<<<<<<<< new shielded wires between them and the Mesa board
Collision detection => 4 wires <<<<<<<<<<< new shielded wires between them and the Mesa board

Need to see pictures of the sensors and wiring, most probably there would be only one or two wires for the up/down and one or two for the collision sensor/probe/floating switch.

Quick question: will 5v relays do the job instead of the 24v relays?
The 24v will be delivered in august. There are 5v versions available on amazon for delivery next time.

Yes they will, but will need more stuff, say 7805 voltage regulators for each one.
Very cheap, can be found anywhere, and does not complicate things much.

Here is a paint pic of the wires we have found when removing the Z motor and looking at the wires going from the head to the box behind Y motor. Pics are coming.

E-stop pics: E-stop on the left side of the head:



Upper part of the e-stop where the wire leaves the sensors



E-stop wires going to the box behind the Y motor: White and Brown are connected together.

collision and sensing pics:

All wires go into a small box before continuing out in 4 wires to the same box behind the y motor:
