Good Day
I have a RPi3B and have happily run it with power via the Micro USB connector on the side next to the HDMI. While doing that, I measure no voltage at pins 2 or 4, whaich I understand are 5V power pins.
For cabling and space reasons, I want to stop using the Micro USB, and supply 5V at pins 2 and/or 4 with pin 6 as ground. When I do this, there is no reaction from the RPi and I am measuring 5.07V between pin 2 and 6. Polarity is correct.
I must be overlooking something very obvious!! Please put me out of my misery
