I'm not sure what your question really is, but I noticed that debugging in
the circuit was not in your 5 step program.  It's a good idea use the
simulator before trying your code on real hardware, but there is still no
substitute for testing and debugging the real thing.  For most hobbyists,
that means using a ICD2.
