Please format your question properly: a short and to the point title, the main question in the body, and any code or console text formatted using the Preformatted Text button (the one with 101010 on it). As it is, your question is rather hard to read.

Lets break this down so you can get the help you need. Does just the arduino and the lidar lite without any of the ROS stuff work? Do you have any other information on where it is not working? You should add these edits to your question.
