Visit this post for the fix
First off all thank you for this entire site. I am completely new to Raspberry Pi. So far I have been able to setup the Wifi and am able to go into the system and configure settings. Now I am starting to set up the airports and LEDs. I cannot get the LEDs to turn on. Not individually or all on for a test. Two different strings of lights same results. I have seen a flash of the lights at first application of power but nothing else. I don't know where to go from here.
Hi Brian, your issue is not uncommon. It invariably stems from a miswired circuit or a bad pin hole in your breadboard, or you may not be grounding the LED's and the RPI together. Best bet is to take a picture of your setup and post it so we can take a look. We'll figure it out. - Mark
Took it all apart and rewired the circuits. Think my problem was I didn't realize that the ground and power wires had to be in a specific order on the board. Lights seem to be working properly now.
Perfect. Great job. Let us know if you have other questions. - Mark
