Good work, I like the auto venting feature.

Well done for overcoming the problems encountered. Hopefully smooth silting from here onwards.

Kind regards

Excellent update and congratulations on so much of the project working. I have also suffered through the misaligned header/connectors before. Fortunately for you the damage was limited and you could check out most of your circuitry.

Well done!

Gene

Oh no!!! I am happy to report that the range hood still works -- turns on automatically when the burners are on and it detects heat (or something like that). Pretty swanky... =)

Is it done yet?

Now you know why most professional systems use keyed connectors.

I to have plugged the flat ribbon cable connectors in wrong, so you are not alone in that respect.

With the RPi, you have mostly low voltage, so most of the pins should be safe, but you just never know.

Good job walking us through the check.
