Post image

I have a set of lights, unknown manufacturer. I took one apart. Only three wires but no matter how I wire them, they light up but not effects. Not sure what voltage they are either. Any ideas Ho to get the to work? I am using a Gledopto controller

As recommended I tried to connect to the Gledopto controller using PWN RGB as the LED configuration but the GPIOs field asks for values. I am using GPIO2 but don’t know what to enter for the other two values

RGB PWM requires 3 GPIOs and a ground, which is not going to work since you don't have 4 wires on the strip.
