I'm starting to wonder if the board we received doesn't even work. I'm simply trying to get the testBlinky file that comes with it working. The code runs until it hits
shields = new TLE9879_Group(1);
and then it gets stuck and the led turns on full white. Then nothing else happens. Please help!

I'm seeing the same issue.

The serial monitor is showing the following on reset of the host board (I'm using a nucleo64)

INFO: Starting initialization
INFO: Sending reset request to all boards

Hi @glennr,

1) Please ensure that you have not erased the flash of the BLDC shield prior to the operation. If it is the case then program it using the batch file available in the zip file of the BLDC shield software.

2) The BLDC shield firmware is tested for Arduino UNO, we recommend you to check with Arduino UNO first.

3) Please ensure connection of the Master board and BLDC shield is correct.

4) Check if the 12V is applied correctly.

For further information please refer to the BLDC Shield for Arduino with TLE9879QXA40 Getting Started.

Thank you

Best Regards
