The serialLCD is connected to A0, do you just use #define txPin 14? will that work?

To use the serial LCD, use the NewSoftSerial.h library like this :

#include <NewSoftSerial.h>

NewSoftSerial sLCD =  NewSoftSerial(3, 14); /* Serial LCD is connected on pin 14 (Analog input 0) *

void setup() {


  sLCD.begin(9600);              /* Setup serial LCD and clear the screen */
  sLCD.print(COMMAND,BYTE);
  sLCD.print(CLEAR,BYTE);
 
  sLCD.print(“LCD demo”);
}
