There is a test button on SC08A. Can you please try to press that button and see if the servo is turning not? Anyway, if you can post some photos of your connection here would be helpful too.

1st, are you sure the crocodile clip at bigger board is not shorting the adjacent pin? Seem to be the possibility to get short is very high, why you don you use a proper wiring? I have been using Female to Male Jumpers from Cytron, is very convenient, and safe :mrgreen:

As hyng suggested, there is a test button on SC08A, you should power up (with proper supply) and press that button. I think their user's manual show the basic setup right?

Did the Green LED on SC08A lit ON? it is the indicator for 5V supply for MCU on SC08A. Both LED on SC08A must be turn ON.
If you have a multimeter, please measure the voltage of SC08A and also servo power.
