Hello, first of all, I hope I'm posting in the right category.
I'm trying to make a self-balancing robot controlled by Bluetooth. I'm following an already made project but I'm having problems with mine. I can't drive my motors which are controlled by the L298N motor driver and my Bluetooth module(HC-05) can't connect to an app on my phone.
The project which I'm following:
Hardware that I'm using:
Arduino Uno
6xAA 1.5V batteries
L298N Motor driver
MPU6050 accelerometer and gyroscope
2 DC motors
Breadboard
The Code:

#include<Wire.h>
#include <PID_v1.h>
#include "MPU6050_6Axis_MotionApps20.h"

#include <digitalIOPerformance.h> //library for faster pin R/W
//#include <Ultrasonic.h>
#define d_speed 1.5
#define d_dir 3
#define IN1 11
#define IN2 10
#define IN3 9
#define IN4 3

#define BALANCE_PID_MAX 255
MPU6050 mpu;
const int rxpin = 6; //Bluetooth serial stuff
const int txpin = 5;
SoftwareSerial blue(rxpin, txpin);
//Ultrasonic ultrasonic(A0, A1);
//int distance;
// MPU control/status vars
bool dmpReady = false; // set true if DMP init was successful
uint8_t mpuIntStatus; // holds actual interrupt status byte from MPU
uint8_t devStatus; // return status after each device operation (0 = success, !0 = error)
uint16_t packetSize; // expected DMP packet size (default is 42 bytes)
uint16_t fifoCount; // count of all bytes currently in FIFO
uint8_t fifoBuffer[64]; // FIFO storage buffer
// orientation/motion vars

Is something wrong with my wiring? I'm stuck and don't know what's the next step.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
