| I cant figure out how to make GP2 and GP1 as an output. |

CCS calls them PIN_A2, PIN_A1.....
I'm not too sure why Microchip call them 'GP' when from day one I/O pins have been called by the port name like 'A' or 'B'.
just a qurk ??

Sorry, I know the names its not that.
I am using A0 as an input to control a 10k pot as well.
I have an LED on pin 4 A2 and it just flashes.
| Code: |
void main()
{
setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_DIV_8); //must use ADC_CLOCK_DIV_8 or ADC_CLOCK_DIV_16 when clock is set to 4Mhz
setup_adc_ports(sAN0);
set_adc_channel(0);
setup_comparator(NC_NC_NC_NC); //turn off comp
while(TRUE)
{
output_high(PIN_A2);
}
}

You should post your complete program, but I'm guessing you have the WDT fuse enabled.

WDT is disabled |

| Code: | #include <12F683.h>
#use delay(clock = 4000000)
#fuses NOMCLR,NOPROTECT,NOWDT,INTRC_IO //,NOIESO,NOCPD,NOFCMEN,NOBROWNOUT

{
setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_DIV_8);

Add this line to your setup code in main(). That should fix pin GP2.
| Code: | | setup_timer_0(T0_INTERNAL); |
Timer0 in this PIC defaults to using an external clock on pin GP2.
By adding the above line, it's reconfigured to use the internal clock
and GP2 can now be used as an output pin. |

Thanks for the response, but that still does not work, it just keeps flashing. |

Do you have a series resistor in your LED circuit ? You need one.
Example:
| Code: |
pin 470 ohms LED
A2 -----/\/\/\/------->|----
|
|
----- Ground
---
-
|
Use a resistor between 220 and 1K. 470 ohms will work fine. |

Classic 'two minds with one thought' here. I just started to post and
saw PCM_programmmer had the same idea.
Thought is that without the resistor, lamp comes on and overloads the
PIC. PIC then stops/crashes, possibly lowering the supply voltage.
It then restarts. Result, flashing LED....
Also, as a 'second thought', make sure the watchdog actually is disabled. If
(for instance) the programmer was not set to update the fuses, you could
have the watchdog 'off' in the code, but it still 'on' in the chip. |

Yes there is a resistor. I tried using port A1 (GP1) and it does the same thing.
I am using a PICKit 2 programmer. |

| LMAO, I am so dumb. I just know realized I was using a flashing LED I have know idea how it got into my regular batch of LED's. |

| Everything is working fine now, I didb't have to add anything to the code, It was just the flashing LED. WOW! |

No wonder it flashed!....
That's a real 'silly'.  |
