Push button not working in Arduino Nano 33 IoT

[mribeira]

Hey there,

I can't seem to make my simple push button program work. All I get is the value 0, whether I'm pressing the button or not. Attached are the circuit I u

sed and the code. The brown cable is connected to D2 (the others are the ground and the 3.3 V), sorry for the poor cable management.

const int pinButton = 2;

void setup() {
  pinMode(pinButton, INPUT);
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop() {
  int stateButton = digitalRead(pinButton);
  Serial.println(stateButton);
  delay(20);
}

Do you know what's causing the problem? Thanks!

Problem, bread board power rail split:

a possible solution,

I thought my breadboard had a full power rail, since it doesn't have the gap that's shown in your pic?

Connect diagonally to the button.
