10/18/2023 Map Stopped Working?
Visit this post for the fix
I got down wiring everything up. Pi has been flashed, wired identical to the schematic. I have three two pin buttons and three lines of lights along with a light sensor.
It turns on and connects fine, the lights turn on. But I don’t know if I am correct to believe. I tried doing the light test after turning on the map, and nothing happens. I tried the three different buttons and nothing also didn’t happen. The lights don’t dim with the light sensor. Is something wrong, or is the check just to make sure the lights work?
Hi,
It looks like you have the Pi wired on the wrong end of the GPIO Pins. Check out https://pinout.xyz/ and you'll see that you've got everything wired towards the high numbered end of pins, as opposed to the lower numbered pins.
Another way to describe it, is that you have the wires connected on the end closest to the USB ports, but as you can see from the schematic, you need wire to them on the end away from the USB Ports. I'm sure once you re-wire you RPi, you'll be all set. - Mark
Unbelievable, I checked the connections multiple times and never caught I was doing it backwards. Thanks, it tests good!

That's no problem. It happens to us all. Glad its working properly. Send us a picture once its done and hanging. - Mark
