Help with setup - solved

@RonP I think for @Phaedrux to be able to answer that, he'll be after clear photos of the top and the bottom of the board, ideally without anything attached.
Can you also comment on when and where you purchased it?

If the green light on the Smart Effector never comes on at all, even at power up, the most likely reason is that it is not getting 3.3V and ground through the 8-pin connector.

First i want to say thank you for everything.
It is working now.
Couple of suggestions:
1.) The ordering of the connections on the documentation (Smart Effector) doesn't line up with the actual 8 pin. Jay pointed out my error.
2.) Update the documentation to reflect the correct green led light or say it could be over here (empty header) or here (by the 8 pin)

So what i think happened is that we had it working shortly after the 6 pin re-do. I was so focused on the green led near the empty header that i didn't see the green led by the 8 pin.
I just happened to see it when i went to take it apart again and touched the print head and saw the green led by the 8 pin.

But thanks again for all the focus and attention.
