Hi there! I'm a truly beginner and I wanted to ask some advice for the project I'm embarking into. I have an Arduino UNO and to sum up I want to control a 12V DC motor to run clockwise and counterclockwise. I need to tell to the motor that it needs to run for a certain amount of time or turns then stop. This need to be triggered by a timer or a clock, for example every day at 5 o'clock starts, run for 10 seconds and then stop. Same story for running counterclowise. I also want to be able to connect wifi/bluethoot with arduino and trigger the motor in one direction (for the preset ammounto of time) and the other direction manually.
I don't know where to start... I have a MFA 919D501LN motor and the Arduino.
If anybody can help me to pick what I need next I would be very grateful. I don't know which motor shild to use and I have no idea on what to get for the wifi/bluethoot.
Thank you in advance!

First thing you need to do is decide which ....
Then look at how to control dc motors via H-bridge for example.
Then if it needs to precisely stop at a given point, decide how to go about that with your dc motor or which type to choose if it does not suit the application.
Don't use capital letters,,,,it implies shouting for attention.
