We have some tutorials around TM1637 7 segment LED display. Here is Code and Circuit Diagram To Create Arduino Traffic Light With LED Display Timer With Push Button Switch. This logical system used for many things including water dispenser, washing machine, air conditioner. Here is a very low quality video for demonstration purpose :
Components Needed For This Arduino Traffic Light With LED Display Timer With Push Button Switch
It is better if you have basic electronic components kit. However, here is a list for developmental version for testing on breadboard :
- Breadboard
- Jumper wires (male)
- 1K Ohm resistor
- Arduino UNO or cheap Arduino components
- 3 LEDs – green, red and yellow
- Push button switch
- TM1637 seven segment LED display

Circuit Diagram and Code For This Arduino Traffic Light
Here is a kind of infographics showing the circuit diagram for any level of user with other information.
The project is on Fritzing. Code is separately kept on Github too.
In the code you’ll see the line :

const unsigned long sprintDuration = 70000; // change time |
You can increase the value from 70000 to increase the timer duration.
