Bluefruit LE error

Post by alexJetski »

Hi,
I purchased your product online Nov 4th (order ID 621511-9282783252). I followed your instructions exactly connecting it to my Arduino Nano sonar and servo setup. It was working fine until today where it connects and disconnects to my iPhone app randomly and I can't send or receive any data to the arduino Nano anymore. If I try using your Bluefruit LE app, and try to connect to it, is pops up a connecting and shortly after "connection timed out.

My app, upon connection to the Bluefruit/Arduino will start sending ping requests and receive echo data from the sonar every 50 ms.

Thanks in advance to help,

Alex

Please post clear, detailed pictures of both sides of the BLE, showing your soldering and connections

The GND looks like a cold solder joint. Can you reflow that and make sure the solder flows completely over the pad
