rasberry pi simple blinking led project help
March 8, 2024, 21:47
Hi. So for school I bought a bread board and I’m supposed to make it so that the led bulb flashes. I have the code and it runs but the led lightbulb doesn’t flash. I have a good feeling it’s the wiring. I’m extremely new to this and any advice is appreciated.
Code:
https://github.com/Freenove/Freenove_Super_Starter_Kit_for_Raspberry_Pi/blob/master/Code/Python_Code/01.1.1_Blink/Blink.py
so close.
the blue wire needs to be plugged into the same line as gpio 11 not 20
I’m sorry but I don’t see gpio11 on my extension board
Also does it matter which way I insert the extension board (I have it upside down because I was struggling to insert it the other way with the numbers starting from 1)
ok then in your code switch the led pin to 20
no
The white plate is called a "Bread Board or a "Experiment Board". And how to use them check this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fq6U5Y14oM4
for the most part it looks like you've wired it up correctly though, if you hadn't shown me the code that's correct wiring
it's just that the code is activating a different pin than what your using on the breadboard
Thanks guys. I can’t connect my rasberry pi right now but once I’m able to I’ll come back 🙂
ok
