After assembling the kit only backlight working! Need help
Please post a picture of your assembly.
Maybe there’s an error in the soldering
Hi, i checked all pins , no short, no cold joints, all pins perfect. I check esr of capacitors all ok. Oscilograms from MCU perfect. Voltages perfect. What next???
Hi
Could you please a post a picture of IC1 and maybe the whole mainboard(without the LCD)
Microcontroller is Atmega328P-PU
I too am having the same problem of only the back light working. I have checked all joints, components, pins, etc. All checks out fine. IC 1 and the microcontroller are the same as the above post. Any feedback would be welcome.
You might have an defective IC.

This is a little off subject at hand. I have this kit and in doing the parts check I see that r3-r5 are listed as 3k3 resisters with orange orange red, while the ones I have are 33 ohm with orange orange black. Has the specs changed or did I get the wrong resisters?
Never mind, I see the error in my reading the resister code.
