Connect to Excel Spreadsheet, all workbooks but one headers are not coming across

I have a excel spreadsheet i'm linked to with about 6 worksheets (tabs) in it.

 

All have column headers, and when I import them, all worksheets the first row imports as the header name...except one of the worksheets what is formatted identical it imports as column 1 and column 2...and then puts the headers as data in the import.

 

Any idea how to fix this?

Click Promote first row to headers. It is in the context menu in the top left of the table in query vire

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.
