I'm new and wanted to ask if I need to care about putting the pins on the uno correct. Like is it important if i put a cable into pwm 5 or 10. Because when I do this it doesnt work. Online i have read that it doesnt mater. And yes the code is correct. Like when I tried putting an lcd somewhere diffe…

You do need to read the documentation for libraries that you use because the libraries can effect pin usage. For instance, the Servo library uses a timer so that, if the Servo library is included, pins 9 and 10 cannot be used for PWM.

Is it irrelevant where i put the pins?

Someone can help, if you take the time to read and follow the instructions in the "How to get the best out of this forum" post.
