Thanks MariMakes,
I checked the cable. It is snug. I plugged and unplugged it in case there was something caught. The capacitive sensor test is giving numbers below 5, so I do not think noise is an issue.
I need some prints, so I have resorted to Ultitune to turn off bed leveling. Not ideal, but I need this to work over the weekend. i will try reaching out to customer service.

An addendum to the things we have tried. We backed up to 7.0.3 firmware. The error persists. So it is not firmware related. Also, we have power cycled the machine, including leaving it off overnight.

We upgraded firmware on our S5 about a week ago. Since then we have not been able to autolevel the bed. Here is what we have done.
Manual level
clean bed
swap bed
swap filament
reset springs to two turns from tight
manual level
swap printheads - tried three sizes in left and two in right. Both AA and BB in right
upgraded firmware again
check capacitive sensor for noise (values ranged from 2.2 - 5.2 over 10 readings in three days)
change silicone heat shield
check sensor wires
check plugs to head board
We are all out of ideas. There has been a thread asking to check a log file for 'unrealistic difference' but we can't find that in the logs we have dumped. Does anyone have any ideas we have not tried?
Firmware 7.1.0 S5 printer unrealistic height difference - won't level bed

I believe we have resolved this issue. There is a small spring above the second nozzle. That spring had twisted down a few turns through the hole. This reduced the downforce on the second nozzle when it was swapped.
