I am an amatuer needing help!
My son and I have designed a small project using an 18X. This is the first time we've used this pic, normally we've used the 08M. We have leds, buzzer, push button and LDR. The serial cable does not connect up to our project, I have been transferring the chip each time after writing the code. We have soldered up the project and written code, however the project is acting very eratically. I wrote code to test each output, to see if I can limit the problem. I still can't figure out what's wrong. The outputs work, but then others come on that shouldn't. I've checked my soldering, and it looks fine. I'm not sure if I'm missing something.
I have a reset pin pulled up to 5V using a 4K7 resistor. The serial input is pulled down to ground with a 22K resistor.
I would be glad for anyone's help
