I did a minor change to the design, I used pins D7&8 instead of 8&9. I did change the definitions to reflect that.



I am not a programmer and this is the first time I have used an Arduino



any ideas?

As a first attempt, check your wiring, specifically the 10k pulldown resistors on pin 7,8 be sure they're there and the connection is secure.

If you soldered the everything, sometimes a solder joint can look good but internally it's actually not making a good connection. By moving the wires during operation, you will see a change in operation if you have a bad connection.
