I'm trying to run a few vibrator motors. Had no success with the arduino so I switched to an ESP32 for testing, but problems still exist.
I'm trying to run a two vibrators in sequence but it just won't work.
A total of 5 buzzers/vibrators, 4 buttons, Every button triggers their own motor. But BEFORE doing that, I want them to first make a shorter buzz on a specific, common motor, this motor is the same for all the button-presses.
Thing is that I can manage to flash LEDs in the sequences I want, and the second motors works as intended, just the first common motor that doesn't wanna play ball for some reason.
I am using DRV8833s, and just one single output to each motor, and they all share a common ground (Normally one would run one or two DC motors on one of these drivers, but since I'm not in need of direction control, I figured I should be able to do it in this way instead.
So Driver A runs motors 1-4 and a second Driver B is what is supposed to drive the common motor. I've tried interchanging them, running it at full power instead of PWM and a lot more, it just won't run.
So I have to assume that there is something wrong with my code (Not surprised in the least, but I think it's strange since flashing a common LED and then resume with flashing their respective LED is working good...
A potentiometer is hooked up as well in order to be afble to tweak the pwm a little while running the program.
Even though the LED blinking works as intended, I have a suspicion that I need to rewrite the code so it uses millis instead of the delays (?)
I have read a bunch on the topic but I don't get how to implement it in my sketch.
Here's my code and a pic of the schematic.
