It's good not to take pictures of your computer screen. Do you know the functionality of the Print Screen key :?:

I'll have a description of the next test in a moment.
On the forum I help to use the rod, I don't give fish.

:idea:

I would like to ask you to test all connections to the display module with your circuit continuity tester.
But in a specific way.

Conect the controller with the display module using the FFC cable. Disconnect all other wires from the controller.

Test the leads I pointed out with a pen in the picture. The circuit diagram will be very helpful.

Hi.
:mrgreen:

Then you have diagnosed the fault and it is very easy to fix.
I think there are cold soldering somewhere.

All you have to do is to improve the soldering points and everything will work like new. :D

If you have any more problems, feel free to ask.
