+## Arduino Debugging Checklist
+
+- [ ] Make sure you have the correct board selected (Arduino Nano)
+- [ ] Make sure your code compiles correctly, you can just compile without uploading.
+- [ ] Check Ports: Tools->Ports, make sure the port selected is a serial port, if it is bluetooth there is an issue there.
+- [ ] Check Bootloader: Tools->Bootloader, try switching the bootloader from new 32 to old 32 or vice versa.
+- [ ] Reset the Arduino by holding down the button on it for a few seconds.
+- [ ] Unplug the Arduino then plug it back in.
+- [ ] Exit out of the Arduino software and reopen it (make sure to close ALL open software windows).  
+- [ ] Try a different Arduino or Cord.
+- [ ] Restart your computer.
+If your Arduino is still not functioning after trying all of these steps, call an instructor over for help!
