Hi,

I am trying to use a uln2003 stepper but its currently not working. I have tested the stepper with the Arduino Stepper Sketch and confirm everything is wired correctly and working. I am trying display Airspeed. Here is how I have it configured.

Stepper Pins
IN1 -> 2
IN2 -> 3
IN3 -> 4
IN4 -> 5

5v and power are connected.

Thank for the help

So it appears to be working on a Mega and not an Uno. I guess it’s not available on the UNO’s firmware yet.

Hi PhillyNY,

welcome to MobiFlight!

Yor're right, the stepper does not work in the right way with an UNO. UNO is since a longe time only experimental.
But times are changing and an new firmware for the UNO is in the pipeline.
So be so kind and use your stepper with a mega until the new firmware is ready.
Thank you.
Grüße,
