It Works . . .

My WiFi Module came in today, and I also bought home some CAT-6 cable to wire it up. I pull out a twisted pair of the wires and it’s perfect for making small connections.

It was easy to figure out which pads to solder too since they were only  two that had a circuit trace going to them.

Then once I had it hooked up, I wired it into the module.

Then I download the app and after a few times going round and round I found got the the module paired with the app and I was good to go.

Once I confirmed that the app would turn the machine on and off, I then linked it with Amazon Alexa and I was done.

For now.

I’ve got a small plastic box ordered that I will use to mount the module and then double-stick tape it to the back on the machine.

As it stands right now, I’m setting aside Thursday to do the rear brakes on the truck. Hopefully the weather will hold, though there is a 30% chance of rain.



Thought for the Day:
 

Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
