I wired a shift register (74HC595 IC) to the Arduino Uno. As I gave power to the Arduino, the green and yellow leds on Arduino board stop shining.

What are these LEDs for? And what is reason behind it?

Hi,

Green led on Arduino Uno indicates the 'ON' condition when it shine.

Yellow led connected to the digital pin 13 , so we can programmed that led.

yellow led stop shining means all the power is drained out by shift register and this is not any problem.

There will be a short in wired connection so that green led stop shining.

So, check your connection, is it according to the pinout configuration of shift register.
