Hello everyone,

First time posting here.

I'm trying to build an automated bidet for my back garden, I have all the kit ready to connect up as you can see in the photo, if someone could just give me the code please.

At least you said please and not ASAP or I'm in a hurry.

Here's a simple example of Arduino code that you can use to control an automated bidet system. This code assumes you have a water pump, a moisture sensor, and a relay module to control the pump. You can adjust the pin numbers based on your specific setup.

### Arduino Code Example

cpp

Copy code

```arduino
// Pin Definitions
const int pumpPin = 7; // Pin connected to the relay for the pump
const int moistureSensorPin = A0; // Pin connected to the moisture sensor
const int threshold = 500; // Moisture level threshold for activation

void setup() {
  pinMode(pumpPin, OUTPUT); // Set pump pin as output
  digitalWrite(pumpPin, LOW); // Ensure pump is off at the start
  Serial.begin(9600); // Start serial communication for debugging
}

void loop() {
  int moistureLevel = analogRead(moistureSensorPin); // Read moisture level
  Serial.println(moistureLevel); // Print moisture level to serial monitor

  // Check if moisture level is below threshold
  if (moistureLevel < threshold) {
    digitalWrite(pumpPin, HIGH); // Turn on the pump
    delay(10000); // Pump for 10 seconds
    digitalWrite(pumpPin, LOW); // Turn off the pump
  }

  delay(1000); // Wait 1 second before checking again
}

```

### Components Needed

- **Arduino (e.g., Arduino Uno)**
- **Water Pump**
- **Relay Module**
- **Moisture Sensor**
- **Wires and Power Supply**

Where should I put the moisture sensor? 🤔

Not enough info. What input sensor and what water pressure regulator? Does the pressure vary with distance from the nozzle or something like that?

What's the feedback to the Arduino so the water spout knows when the, um, job is done?  
Did you consider Neopixel lighting and for God's sakes man - where's the water heater??

A water heater without a thermostat could be dangerous.

Not at -40, that is the same in F as in C BTW.

Seriously funny stuff.

Would you like fries with that order? Sadly while humorous we see plenty of those post. I want code and I want it now.

If with one it can be dangerous if the thermostat breaks.

Add an ldr at the bottom to detect solid doos. More water will be needed for full rinse.  
Maybe position of sprayer is not ideal...

Watch all episodes of Startrek. They were able to reliably detect Klingons.

But in this case the need is obviously urgent.

Stand by, consulting medical texts now.

Please state whether you're going to want to add a servo eleven posts from now to provide an oscillating function.

Yes. Or no. It depends.

A post that constantly appears in the top of the list with the word URGENT in bold, sort of suggest such posts are normal\acceptable.

Are they, when they are not ?
