Hi everyone,
I'm new to PI and am trying to add a power LED. I followed the tutorial attached using pins 6 and 8 and the 330 ohm resistor. I enabled UART using the GUI. I did not edit boot/config.
The problem is my LED only dims when I shut the PI down. It doesn't completely shut off. I'm using the little reset button to shut it down. Or through the GUI. Doesn't matter. I've tried 2 LEDs. One rated at 3-6V the other rating unknown.
Any help is appreciated. Thx
