Describe your issue:
Hi, I noticed this weird problem with my printer/setup after installing BLTouch. Basically my prints started to have some kind of layer shift or something like that.
Let’s assume that I want to print perfectly straight part, something like calibration cube, but my print actually looks more like that
Red line is showing how it looks in real life.
I really don’t know what might be the cause of this issue, I noticed it after installing BLTouch, but I don’t know if this is somehow connected or unusual coincidence.
This layer shift happens only in X axis. Y is perfectly straight. I checked for loose belts or loose sprockets on steppers, but they are fine.
This is my printer.cfg

Yes I know that my printer is very, very old, but somehow I like to repair it every week
