    Hi all,

    I have recently upgraded my rig (will post build soon) but cant seem to get the green line to move in the SMC3.

    I have checked all wiring but not sure how to check if I have damaged the sensors during the new build.

    SMC3 is connecting ok, but the green line goes immediately down to the limit and spinning either of the sensors wont get it back within range.

    Is there something simple I am missing? Have I managed to damage both sensors? Is the Arduino damaged? how do I test?

    Thanks in advance..

    Is the Hall Sensor properly centered?
