Can't use Klicky probe as z - endstop

Hello everyone,
My stock z-endtop will not produce consistent readings...or at least I can say, when I have it enabled as a z-endstop my z-offset is +/-.5. I've rebuilt it twice and tried sexbolt mod with no help. I converted my Voron back and forth between using the klicky as a z-probe and not. My latest attempt to fix/utilize the z-endstop failed again...I'm trying to revert back and it now refuses to use klicky as a z-probe. It simply uses the stock one. I followed this guide :

Klicky Probe as Endstop with constant Z-Offset

Voron Official and Community Documentation

Attached are my configs. I would appreciate any help.

Have you tried running a PROBE_ACCURACY macro on the klicky probe?

For me it was the switch itself, it had a rubber tip, https://forum.vorondesign.com/threads/sometimes-pcb-klicky-probe-is-unreliable.1092/#post-8817

That is the style of switch I used. Do you have a recommendation for a different one? I can't run Probe_accuracy because my machine can't home due to klipper config.

I think I desoldered that switch and soldered a "normal" one on. Same swiches are also used for endstops so I had some laying around.
It looks a bit like this


But you can also buy kits like this.

On my V2.4 350 I bought second hand, I found that the printing of the parts was sub-par and the clicky was not sitting well on all three magnets. Since the pickup is relying on the magnets to attach properly, if the three magnets are not level in the same plane, you can have a wobble which causes massively inaccurate readings. Also it is slow even if it works. all the toolhead moves doing the pick up, probing, re-mount and then homing (also in between) and the bed mesh together can take 5 or 6 minutes. Add the out of tolerance incidents and it adds up.
All in all I found it a system that leaves much to be desired and eventually I rebuilt my whole machine and now I use a cartographer. The only thing that I now need to watch out for is a blob of plastic under the nozzle because touch does not work if it has that. Now the whole start procedure takes less then 2 minutes.
I recommend at least looking at your options with regards to these z offset switches.
