Output high at bootup (need to stay low) Solved

Other Hardware 3rd Party Boards
8

I first pulled down the outputs 9 and 10 to GND with 13K7 resistor.
Same problem.
Then added the code that controls the outputs below the pinmode declarations
Same problem.
Then I moved it up directly under serial begin.
Problem solved.

Thanks for your cooperation. I hope others benefit from it too.

 void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);                       // Output to serial writing or BT

  speedfinalValue =  0; //this value determens if the motor is running. if value = 0 then PWM signal = 0
  brakeNValue = 0; //this value determens if the motor is braked. if value = 0 then PWNM signal = 0
  
  pinMode(led7Pin, OUTPUT);                // initialize the led as a output control pin //
  pinMode(led8Pin, OUTPUT);                // initialize the led as a output control pin //
  pinMode(led12Pin, OUTPUT);                // initialize the led as a output control pin //
  pinMode(led13Pin, OUTPUT);                // initialize the led as a output control pin //
  //pinMode(11,INPUT); //for calibration push button
  //digitalWrite(11, HIGH);    // enable the 20k internal pullup for MEGA board
  digitalWrite((54), HIGH);  // enable the 20k internal pullup for MEGA board
