Well, that photo is not very informative...
and I notice that it's not actually my break-out board...
how do you have the connector mounted on that perf-board?

Are you sure you haven't shorted contacts on the connector?
If you are able to read the sensor-board Photo/Temp on ADC1
then I think there must be a connection issue with your BOB.

Another thing to try, if you have a steady hand, is just
solder a wire (tiny wire-wrap wire has worked for me) to
a spare mating connector at -- I think -- pin 42 and run
that to your pot center.

good luck
