I've been looking on the internet and found that the Timer2 in atmega 328 controls with pins 3 and 11, and with the mega, pins 9 and 10.
Is that the problem I have?
What is the advice you give, change the Timer2 or change the pins and keep the Timer2.
In the mega, the Timer0 and Timer2 are 8bits as the atmega 328, and the rest are 16bit.
To change the timer and keep 8bits, could only be with Timer0, which somewhat limits the options, I think the best is to change the pins and keep the Timer2.
What is your opinion regarding this issue.
Note: Pins that are occupied on my arduino mega are 13 and 11, the remaining PWM are free, I changed the lcd for Pins PA0, PA1, PA2, PA3, PA4 and PA5 Pins that are 22, 23, 24 , 25, 26 and 27.

Thank you
José Rodrigues
