Autocalibration Failing

I searched through the forums and didn't see the issue I am having today. I haven't used my printer for a few weeks, decided I wanted to play around and started the autocalibration process. It fails on the Z axis wholly. It goes through X calibration a bit, then Y, then gets to Z and freezes. No errors kicking that I can tell. I've attached my log here. Any ideas? :?

From the log I see

<-Z-probe:5.93 Step Variation from Probe to bed Distance:-1126.00 X:0.00 Y:142.68
<-
<-X:0.00 Y:142.68 Z:13.875 E:0.0000
<-
<-Z probe failed on sensitivity: 22

That means the z probe failed when close to the Z tower. Check for loose plug on the hot end. Maybe it just does not make contact when close to the Z tower.

It looks like the thick red wire (yes i'm an idiot) had come a bit loose actually. I am not sure how as it wasn't very tight. I cut and reset it and it went through the whole thing. Thank you so much.
