What have you tried? Post your best attempt at the code. Please format your code before posting in a code block.

Tell us what the code actually does and how that differs from what you want.

Please post a schematic. Hand drawn, photographed and posted is fine. Include all pin names/numbers, components, their part numbers and/or values and power supplies.  
Or [How to make a schematic to post.](https://forum.arduino.cc/t/how-to-make-a-schematic-you-can-post/675103)
