hi! i have made a school project with a motor as a dyno, to power the code and stuff, but the code wont upload after i soldered the wires to my nano clone. i have tried to do the same as i did when i first uploaded the code, but now its just stuck on "uploading...". the code is verified, so thats not the problem, and i checked the board, and none of the wires i soldered to the board is touching each other or the reset pins. i have no clue whats wrong, and really need help cause the do is tomorrow.
What is soldered where? What voltage and current control have you got for your 'Dyno'? Post a close, in focus image of your soldering. Did you test the clone before uploading?
i have soldered + and - from the motor to vin and gnd, and the diodes to pin 5 and ground. the code worked at the beginning, but then it stopped working, and the motor sends out 14 voltage at maximum when i used voltmeter to check. the vin has a maximum of 15 voltage, so i dont see what the problem could be. also i dont have my phone with me now, so unfortunatly i cant send picture
Describing connections is not enough.
A complete schematic AND pictures are needed.

COMMON ISSUES
-
Ensure you have FULLY inserted the USB cables.
-
Check you have a COMMON GROUND where required. ( Thanks @Perry)

Where possible use USB 2.0 ports or a USB 2.0 POWERED HUB to rule out USB 3.0 issues.
-
Try other computers where possible.
-
Try other USB leads where possible.
-
You may not have the correct driver installed. CH340/341 or CP2102 or FT232 VCP Drivers - FTDI
-
There may be a problem with the board check or remove your wiring first.
-
Remove any items connected to pins 0 and 1.
COMPUTER RELATED
-
Close any other serial programs before opening the IDE.
-
Ensure you turn off any additional security / antivirus just to test.

-
Close the IDE before using any other serial programs.
-
Preferably install IDE’s as ADMINISTRATOR or your OS equivalent
ARDUINO SPECIFIC BOARDS
-
CH340/341 based clones do not report useful information to the “get board info” button.
-
NANO (Old Types) some require you to use the OLD BOOTLOADER option.
-
NANO (ALL Types) See the specific sections lower in the forum.
-
NANO (NEW Types) Install your board CORE’s.
-
Unless using EXTERNAL PROGRAMMERS please leave the IDE selection at default “AVRISP mkII”.
-
Boards using a MICRO usb connector need a cable that is both DATA and CHARGE. Many are CHARGE ONLY.
CREATE editor install locations.
-
On macOs ~/Applications/ArduinoCreateAgent-1.1/ArduinoCreateAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/config.ini
