Hi Everyone,
This is on a Arduino UNO R3
I noticed something acting quirky while testing some code so I decided to test the pins using the code below and I noticed that on pins 9 and up without plugging in the jumper it would start transmitting on its own as if the jumper cable was plugged in and sending a bunch of garbage to the serial monitor.
Is this chip toast?
Is it worth replacing just the chip or just toss it and replace entire board?
Please follow the advice given in the link below when posting code, in particular the section entitled 'Posting code and common code problems'
Use code tags (the </> icon above the compose window) to make it easier to read and copy for examination
The question was not about the code but as to the board.
But you posted code, hence the request to use code tags to make it easier to read and copy if necessary
Serial.print without Serial.begin ???
//Edit
Missed that it was in loop() 
Serial.begin(131200);
That's a strange baud rate. Try 115200 instead and make sure the Serial Monitor has the same rate. Also, move it to setup().
As soon as we have the code and baud rate sorted we can start looking and commenting on the board.
