Please Help Me.... Whats wrong with me...

#include <VirtualWire.h> //
#include <AFMotor.h>
byte msg[VW_MAX_MESSAGE_LEN];//
byte msgLen = VW_MAX_MESSAGE_LEN;
char forward[1] = {1};

AF_DCMotor motor1(1, MOTOR12_1KHZ);
AF_DCMotor motor2(2, MOTOR12_1KHZ);
AF_DCMotor motor3(3, MOTOR34_1KHZ);
AF_DCMotor motor4(4, MOTOR34_1KHZ);

void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("READY..........");
vw_setup(2048); //
vw_set_rx_pin(2);//
vw_rx_start();//

void loop()
{
if (vw_get_message(msg, &msgLen)) //
{
//Serial.print("got transmition");
motor1.setSpeed(255);
motor2.setSpeed(255);
motor3.setSpeed(255);
motor4.setSpeed(255);
switch (msg[0])
{
case '0':

Hi,
Welcome to the forum.

Please read the first post in any forum entitled how to use this forum.
http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php/topic,148850.0.html then look down to item #7 about how to post your code.
It will be formatted in a scrolling window that makes it easier to read.

Please do not cross post....

Thanks.. Tom... :slight_smile:

Hi,

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("READY..........");
  vw_setup(2048); //
  vw_set_rx_pin(2);// 
  vw_rx_start();//


void loop()
{
  if (vw_get_messa

What is missing at the end of void setup() and before void loop()?

Tom..... :slight_smile:
