Solved Display is black

[orge]

I am building a voron 2.4R, and now I am only missing the display for Octopus 1.0
It is black when connecting to exp1+2, and display enabled in printer.cfg
I am using the mini 12684 v3.0 makersbase, and have tried 2 diffent displays with same output. What am I missing ?

Not sure about the makerbase, but if you mix BTT with Fysetc (either board or display, doesn't matter), one side will need the plastic part around the board pins reversed.

You will need to compare pinouts for your display vs the mainboard to see if they are connecting to the correct pins.

The plastic thingy around the pins can be removed by gently / firmly pulling it up with a pair of needle nose pliers.
