Gotek no motor sound help!

Ok so this has escalated from slightly annoying to, why the f£#@ isn’t it working?

I flashed my gotek with the latest firmware, enabled to motor sound in the settings. Added the buzzer to the JB jumpers and nothing, complete and utter silence.

Has anyone else had this issue?

No

Is it on the wrong way around?

Also, is it a piezo speaker, and not a magnetic speaker?

You'll get no sound out of a magnetic one, or maybe very very low sound?

One of these

I bought it because that is what the guy in the Youtube video I followed was using. As far as I was aware, there isn't a wrong way to put the wires. It works both way doesnt it?

Nope. It works only one way. Longer pin (+ AFAIR) needs to go closer to the rear of gotek. Worked everytime for me.
