      Hi,

      For some reason the WiPy 2.0 + Expansion board that I was using no longer seems to be able to connect to my computer, using the Atom Pymakr package. It used to work fine but all of a sudden it just doesn't really connect. The console says it's connected, but it doesn't show those 2 arrows (>>) , and if I try running a file, it will say that it's running, but nothing is actually happening.
      I also can't type anything into a console. Usually to ensure connection, I just typed in 1+1 to verify that the WiPy was there, but now I cant even type that.

      This is what the "connected" console looks like.

      Has anyone encountered this before?

      Pressing reset on the WiPy by the way seems to do something, but then the console says there was an indentation error on line 59 of main.py... which does not really make sense.

      Thanks for any help.

        Sounds like you might have a loose jumper on your expansion board. Can you please check that they are all present and fully pushed down like in this photo:
