The supposedly faulty pin on one of the modules would have been an easy fix if that were the problem, so I removed the clear tubing and ensured continuity between the daughter module and the breakout pin.
The link between the module and the breakout board seemed reliable, but I added a bit of solder to be sure. Pins for data transmission and reception were both at the corner and looked to be secure connections.
There was no change in the performance, but a check with the mobile app showed that everything was talking and the module did not want to cooperate with anything but a mobile phone. This module was set aside with a note that it will not accept AT commands so it should not be used with anything except a project where it will link to a mobile app.
The rest of the posts for this project have been arranged by date.

Just a problematic board
