T100 doesn't work on arduino

Hello!
I just received a T100 and the basic esc that I ordered a few days ago.
I don’t know much about robotics, so I wanted to try the propeller with the easiest code (found on this forum : Basic ESC Documentation (New))
I connected the ground of the arduino with the battery (-).
The T100 plays 3 notes, and then… nothing.
(The battery used is a 12V 7Ah)
could anyone help me?
thanks !

Hi @Ulric,

Please:

  1. take a picture of how you have everything connected
  2. copy and paste the exact code that you have in your arduino program right now.

this is the code ,

#include <Servo.h>

byte servoPin = 9;
Servo servo;

void setup() {
servo.attach(servoPin);
servo.writeMicroseconds(1500);
delay(7000);

void loop() {
int signal = 1700;
servo.writeMicroseconds(signal);
}

thank you.

You’ve got the white/black wires crossed where you have plugged jumper wires into the signal connector on the ESC.

what an idiot I am…
sorry to have wasted your time.
