When you adjusted height the last time, did you check level as well? That was the root of my issue when I was seeing the same phenomenon. A combination of the nozzle too close to the glass and not being level.

:? huh, then i guess you have a 24v machine. remove that command out of the line like jin said. usually the fans dont come on with that there but i cant keep track of what was going on there for awhile concerning those thing. too many configurations. keep lowering the bed little by little. it will straighten you out.

One more thing... My S3D says I'm up to date and running 2.0.1?

this is a real puzzler. when you set the z-height, do you do it when the bed is up to temp? If not, that could cause a problem because the glass expands and shrinks the gap, especially around those high ABS temperatures for the bed.

about s3d- yeah, they haven't updated the updater. just go to the site and download the new version. i forget if there's anything more to it than that....but the latest version is 2.1. it's worth it to install.

here i just started a print a min ago and it has a wide skirt so i purposely turned my z-height adjustment knob to raise the bed 1 click so you could see what happened because now i am printing too close.

in terms of bed adhesion, are you using anything besides bare glass? if not you may end up thinking you have to be closer than you really do to get adhesion.

and here is another of the first layer infill. if i turn the knob and drop the bed 1 click this will print perfectly. of course you want to get your adjustment bolt set and not do it with the knob. i just did it to demonstrate.
