I would really like to hook my 3DTouch to my MeCreator 2. Does anybody know how to wire it correctly? Also has anyone found a good way to mount it?

@Marco
So you mean the Sensor works fine during the calibration but the nozzle is not in the right position when printing?
If you do,decrease the value "-1.4" in the following codes:
CODE: SELECT ALL
#define Z_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -1.4

You can decrease it to "-1.9" first to see if it makes a difference.
I think, that something did go wrong. Now when I switch on the 3D printer, the 3DTouch sensor, starts up and down, but after blinks.

Maybe you can have a try on what i told @elfag.blogg.no before.

You can have a try first.
Attach a video about your issue please if it doesn't fix it.
Good Luck
