Motor shield v2 won't work

Post by JyoP »

Hi, I am a big fan of Adafruit, but recently my motor shield v2 doesn't work anymore. It was working fine before and all of a sudden it stopped working. I would like a replacement, because I have tried everything to make it work, I checked all the solder connection, and made sure all the wiring was correct. And it was all good.

How long have you had the Motor Shield?

What motors and power supply are you using with the shield?

Um, I am using 9 volts for powering just the shield. And I am using an adafruit Stepper motor that was meant to work with the sheild.

When did you purchase the shield?
Please post photos showing your soldering and connections to the shield.

Hope you're not using a 9V battery when you say "powering just the shield with 9V." That won't work.

I'm having what seems to be a similar problem with my Motor shield 2.3
