Troubleshooting

The pin headers do not connect properly to the breadboard.
Probable cause: The pin headers were inserted in the wrong direction.
Solution: Remove the pin headers and insert them in the correct direction.

The pin headers slip out of the breadboard.
Probable cause: The ends of the pin headers were not bent correctly.
Solution: Bend the ends of the pin headers slightly to secure them in the breadboard.

The Arduino module does not respond.
Probable cause: The pin headers were not connected properly.
Solution: Check the connection of the pin headers and try again.

The pin headers are damaged.
Probable cause: The pin headers were bent too forcefully.
Solution: Replace the damaged pin headers with new components.
