Step 1: Attaching Breadboard

Take the sheath off the double sided tape below the breadboard and attach the
breadboard to car chassis as shown in Figure 1 and 2 below:

Step 2: Covering caster wheel screws with tape

Now take some tape and cover the screws above the caster wheel as shown below,
We are going to place Arduino Uno board over here. These can cause short circuit
when electrical components are placed above them.

Step 3: Attaching Arduino UNO on car chassis

Now take out Arduino UNO and place it on top of the caster wheel side of the car
chassis.

Step 4: Attaching L298 on car chassis

Attach the L298N driver to the chassis using the double sided tape in the orientation
as shown in Figure 10.

Step 5: Passing motor wires through chassis

Pass the motor wires through the two holes on the sides of the chassis as illustrated
below.

Repeat the same step for the second motor. It should now look like this:

Step 6: Connecting motors with L298

Screw down the wires of motors on the motor driver, keeping in mind which wire
goes to which terminal of the motor driver as depicted below:

Step 7: Removing extra jumpers from L298

Notice the 6 pins on the front of the motor driver marked as ENA, IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4,
ENB. We need to connect those pins to Arduino UNO. For that take off the jumpers
from the pins ENA and ENB.

Step 8: Connecting L298 and Arduino

Take a bundle of 6 male to female jumper wires. Attach the female end of that bundle
to those 6 pins from ENA to ENB on the motor driver, and the male end on the digitals
pins from 10 to 5, with ENA going to pin 10 of Arduino and ENB going to pin 5.

Step 9: Connecting Ultrasonic Sensor with Arduino

Now place the ultrasonic sensor on the breadboard facing outward, with its pin marked
as VCC going to 5V pin of Arduino UNO, GND to GND, Trig to pin 3 and Echo to pin
2.

Trig pin is attached to pin 3 and Echo to pin 2, as shown by white and black wire below:

Figure 23

Similarly, VCC of ultrasonic sensor is attached to 5V pin of Arduino UNO and GND
to GND pin.
