Buy a new LED
Welcome to the boards rb-wan
The problem was already solved. He had the polarity on the LED reversed on accident. But yeah, if that didn't fix it he would want a new LED most likely
Just out of curiosity, how easy is it to kill an LED if you mess up the wiring?
VERY easy.
It depends on what you mess up.
If you get the polarity wrong at the LED, it won't do anything, because no current will flow through it, current only flows in one direction through any kind of diode, which an LED is.
If you mess up in a way that gives it too much current, or too much voltage, then yeah, you can kill the LED that way pretty quickly.
What is this part called? Attachment 12298 And where can I find it.
Is the resistor required?
