This shows enough of the ICSP (In-Circuit-Serial-Programming) connection to tell you how to connect it:



(Sorry for such a huge image)

Don't forget this is a 3.3v device. Powering it with more than that could damage it--Make sure your PICkit2 is set to 3.3V mode, not 5V mode.

Doing this from memory, so hopefully someone else can verify what I'm saying :p

I think I have follow the instruction, I have the same connexions to the icsp that the picture of derstrom8. But when I connect my pickit2 to icsp I obtain the following answer : no device detected. Ensure proper capacitance on vddcore/vcap pin..
And yes I'am on 3.3v with my pickit2.

This happens when some windows task or applet interferes with the USB ports. I had a similar problem with a PICKit 3 initially. I used CCleaner to disable programs that were run on startup and found it was a piece of Dell crapware.

The PICkit 2 has a standalone program that can be used to program and verify a part, and also to troubleshoot the PICkit itself.

Most times when I can't get mine to connect I've swapped the data and clock lines.
