12 V DC Motor with IBT-2 H-bridge module on arduino - no movments/sounds

Hi everyone,

I tried to get a 12 V DC motor running. So I got myself a IBT-2 H-bridge module. (See attachments)

My motor doesnt make a sound or move.

I tried it according to this how to:
http://www.hessmer.org/blog/2013/12/28/ibt-2-h-bridge-with-arduino/

First I didnt solder anything and so on. It didint work.
So I put on a little bit effort and soldered my connections to the motor , used some ferrules to connect the motor to the H bridge and some fly legs + ferrules to connect it with my variable DC output.

I got my voltage to the H Bridge, but the arduino doesnt light up but I checked twice that I wired it up corrretly and used a mulitmeter to check the voltage on my bread board.

I also altered in the code the

int SENSOR_PIN = 0; // center pin of the potentiometer

to

int SENSOR_PIN = A0; // center pin of the potentiometer

and back to the prior code.

what could be wrong now? I am very happy to and thankful to get answers from you.
greetings Martin

I guess you're talking about the power LED of the Arduino? That would indicate you're not providing power to it.
