I have uploaded this code right here which is the example code, I have 2 RC 522 modules, the first one I tested and it worked fine, but when I connected the second one �Firmware Version: 0x82 = (unknown)
Scan PICC to see UID, SAK, type, and data blocks... got printed in the Serial Monitor. I tried placing my RFID cards but no response came whereas the other reader worked just fine and printed out the data.

* --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Example sketch/program showing how to read data from a PICC to serial.
* --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* This is a MFRC522 library example; for further details and other examples see: https://github.com/miguelbalboa/rfid
*
* Example sketch/program showing how to read data from a PICC (that is: a RFID Tag or Card) using a MFRC522 based RFID
* Reader on the Arduino SPI interface.
*
* When the Arduino and the MFRC522 module are connected (see the pin layout below), load this sketch into Arduino IDE
* then verify/compile and upload it. To see the output: use Tools, Serial Monitor of the IDE (hit Ctrl+Shft+M). When
* you present a PICC (that is: a RFID Tag or Card) at reading distance of the MFRC522 Reader/PCD, the serial output
* will show the ID/UID, type and any data blocks it can read. Note: you may see "Timeout in communication" messages
* when removing the PICC from reading distance too early.
*
* If your reader supports it, this sketch/program will read all the PICCs presented (that is: multiple tag reading).
* So if you stack two or more PICCs on top of each other and present them to the reader, it will first output all
* details of the first and then the next PICC. Note that this may take some time as all data blocks are dumped, so
* keep the PICCs at reading distance until complete.

(edited by J-M-L to fix the code tags that were there but with spaces)
is there any way to revive it?
