Hi,
I discovered a new problem which I never seen or heard of before. My circuit works fine with the LCD hooked up. I removed the LCD restart and the pins output goes haywire..
I removed all the coding concerning the LCD in the program, did not work. Turns out, if I do not have 56 ohm resistance between the positive and negative, the circuit will not function properly. This resistance also need to be placed on the MCLR / ground rail !!!
here is the code I have, but I am not sure this will make a difference because the code does work with the 56ohm resistance..
Code:'using a pic16F88 - on cart trial module.
