Bed center control sending carriage to X

I am currently calibrating after installing the new carriages. I go through the zyx bed center process, after getting the x tower set I hit bed center and the carriage comes back to x. I'm not sure if this due to the new carriages. I noticed that the screws on the new carriages barely hit the stop switch enough to leverage the metal piece down in order to push the black button. Alternatively, I hit bed center after setting the x tower and bed center does not change even after resetting horizontal radius.. Anyone else dealing with this?

Your post doesn't make a great deal of sense as written.
Did you remember to reset the starting point for your Horizontal Radius to 140? (I've found that with the new arms AND new carriages, 144 is a better starting point)

Thanks Gene, I will try starting at 144.
Sorry about the confusing post, I wrote it just when the coffee was starting to take hold

I like the confusing posts, it makes me stop and think awhile which is getting harder for me to do!

Haha, that tends to happen pre coffee, everything is out of order until the second cup or so
By the way, I started at 144 and ended up At 143.5. It's printing great !
