I cannot get my I2C 1602 LCD to work. When I attach it to my Pi, it lights up. but nothing else.
1. Yes I have the LCD plugin enabled and the address entered.
2. I have tested this Pi with this LCD outside of SIP and it works just great.
3. I have noticed that when I look at the LCD Plugin, the status always says , "Off". Is it supposed to ever say something else?
Thanks for any help.
I had a bit of fun with LCD working as well.
Mine is now working fine, although status always shows off on the GUI.
1st off, make sure you have the latest SIP installed, update as required.
Make sure the I2C address is correct (in the plug-in GUI) for the device you are using..
Test and check with command i2cdetect –y 1
