Hi guys,
SoI am new to arduino and, have been working on a little project where I illuminate a succession of 10 LEDs by using a slide potentiometer. The LEDs come on one by one as the slider makes it's way up the rail.
Recently Ive noticed that the first LED in the line blinks/flashes rapidly when it's on, while the other 9 behave fine. Any idea what might be causing this? Is it just a faulty LED or a sign of a bigger issue?
Cheers
One of those things.
Possibly.
Or it could be the wiring is intermittent, have you used a solderless bread board? They often cause problems over time.
Its soldered onto perfboard..
I thought originally it might be the slider but I've tried 3 different ones now and all the same. I would just replace the LED to see if it made a difference but it's a nightmare to access.
Any time you want to share a schematic, or some code, just go for it.
We won't mind, honest.
