    Hard to tell, maybe something with the wires.
    Here mine.

    How did you wire the 15k square wave since it’s marked different than the drawing on here on our boards.

    Not sure what is different other than the a1<->a2 and B1<->b2 inverted.
    The 15k is the same.
    15k of motor a goes to pin 9, and the 15k of B goes to pin 10 just like the example
    They are named PA and PB on mine

    Nothing on AG or PW

    Did some more investigating and turns out the circuit boards are faulty. There was an open circuit on the last channel. After removing the heatsink I noticed that the pin holes were absent there & that's what connects to the back side of the board. Soldered in a jumper cable & the problem is solved. All 3 boards were the same

    Just realise I missed you previous post.
    I have a blue LED not too far of where we connect the wires for the Arduino and 2 oter LED on the sides near the big capacitor (red/green) LED.
    Mine looks different than yours, it has way more solder.
