Problems uploading the code to the board

[sundae1234]

I'm really new to Arduino. Hoping that I will get some help .
So, I'm using a Arduino Uno and my os is chrome os flex. I don't have any error in my code but when I try to upload it it says:

Arduino: 1.8.19 (Linux), Board: "Arduino Uno"

Sketch uses 3162 bytes (9%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.
Global variables use 449 bytes (21%) of dynamic memory, leaving 1599 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

Problem uploading to board. See https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/sections/360003198300 for suggestions.

This report would have more information with

option enabled in File -> Preferences.

So, please help

The code is:

{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("Car is Ready");
  pinMode(LF, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(RF, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(LB, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(RB, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(FL, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(BL ,OUTPUT);
  pinMode(H, OUTPUT);
}

void loop()
{
  if (Serial.available())
  {
    char a = Serial.read();
    Serial.print("The command is ");
    Serial.println(a);
    if (a == 'F')
      Forward();
    if (a == 'B')
      Backward();
    if (a == 'R')
      Right();
    if (a == 'L')
      Left();
    if (a == 'S')
      Stop();

      FrontLoff();
    if (a == 'U')
      BackLon();
    if (a == 'u')
      BackLoff();
    if (a == 'U')
      Hon();
    if (a == 'u')
      Hoff();
      
  }

Have you got the right board and serial port selected in the Tools menu?

this is not an introductory tutorial... didn't you read the stickies?

On Uno, pin 1 is used by the serial communication. Disconnect what is connected and try the upload again.

Hello @sundae1234 and welcome to the world of Arduino!

Ok, that sounded pretty good .

On the Uno, pin 1 is the TX pin, so it will mess up the communication between the board and your pc while trying to program. That is why the error is programmer is not responding.

Take a look at the pinout of the Uno:

I changed it. But it is the same error. Any other solutions or my Arduino have some problems?

You never answered the second post.
