Servo Problems- Resolved...
Good afternoon!
I just finished building a 4.2.4 Heatermeter. Most of the items are working - probes, thermocouple, blower, etc.
However, I cannot get the Tower MG90s servo working. When I first plug in the servo, it blips about 5 degrees counterclock wise, then it doesn't move again.
Here is what I've tried:
1.) I verified the pinout. Servo groud pin 4. (Brown) Servo Power pin 3 (Orange), Servo Signal (Yellow) pin 6.
2.) I checked the jack with a multimeter. I'm getting +5v on both pin 3 and pin 6. Ground is correct pin 4.
3.) I tried a second cable / second jack / and second servo.
4.) I tried a bunch of servo pulse duration settings / invert / lid mode / manual fan. It doesn't move except slightly when first plugged in.
5.) I checked the board, and could find any bridged pins or other connection issues.....
If you have ever seen this issue or have any ideas, I would really appreciate any suggestions!!
Thanks!!!!!!
