Place the Raspberry Pi Pico on the breadboard, leaving 2 rows of pins out on both sides. In other words, place it in the center.

Adding the Resistor

Add on the resistor at 44 at the very right side and the other end at 40 on the very right side.

The LED

Add the LED as shown. The longer hand is the one on the resistor's side and the shorter hand is on the side with nothing yet. Place the LED at 40 on the right side and 40 on the left.

Jumper Wiring 1
