Clean the board up using solder wick -- if there are shorts like those mentioned in Jot's answer, it may clear them up. Also, if you need an Arduino to solder into a circuit, just start with one that doesn't come with pins soldered on already -- eg, a Nano or Micro. You can buy half a dozen of each for the cost of the time to take the pins off an Uno.James Waldby - jwpat7– James Waldby - jwpat72017-01-24 21:30:15 +00:00Commented Jan 24, 2017 at 21:30

If I may suggest, there are "minimal" boards around you can buy for a couple of dollars that just have the basic processor on them. This could be a better solution than heating up your Uno (probably quite a lot) to get rid of the existing pins.Nick Gammon– Nick Gammon ♦2017-01-25 05:16:15 +00:00Commented Jan 25, 2017 at 5:16

How to Format
-
create code fences with backticks ` or tildes ~
```
like so
``` -
add language identifier to highlight code
```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- indent code by 4 spaces
- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line
- to make links (use https whenever possible)
<https://example.com>[example](https://example.com)<a href="https://example.com">example</a>
How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. arduino-uno), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
