Glad to see that fixed it!

Maybe the ribbon cable isn't sitting straight in the connector and some of the pins are shorting? In situations like these I always like to check the main voltage the screen takes in and make sure it isn't shorted to ground. These ribbon cables are sensitive, and I've gotten screens before...

Update time... A lot has happened with this project since my last post. I acquired the proper ribbon cable, and I was able to confirm that the pinout with the flipped ribbon cable is indeed correct! It's really nice that such a major mistake could be fixed so easily! So I got to testing...

Holy cow man! Amazing to see this actually working! Incredible work!

Super cool idea! Looking forward to seeing how much you can shrink this down! Would be really cool to work this into AIO projects, but running the screen more efficiently and having a smaller footprint would also be really nice!

It's update time! The boards arrived in the mail: This was my first time ordering in white and blue from JLC. I thought a nice red, white, and blue color scheme would be nice for this. As you may have noticed, I opted to have the motherboard partially pre-assembled by JLC. Doing so was...

On my hot air station I go full 450c with the highest airflow setting. You just gotta blast that thing before the motherboard becomes too much of a heatsink. And try not to turn any aluminum capacitors into rocket ships in the process. This should go without saying, but obviously you want to...

This is a really fancy cool theme! The only thing I don't like about making full on proper themes is the difficulty in maintaining them with updates. Maybe one of these days I should look into writing a bash script that would update the themes automatically or something. Really awesome...

Did you bridge J3 like it says to on the 4layer website?

I didn't realize you had modeled your own connector when you were showing it off the other day. That looks super clean dude!

U10 strikes again! I knew it had to be U10! Nice work dude! Good to see this resolved!

This is a tough one. You appear to have done your due diligence - trim resistances look good, u10 is relocated, wire gauge is large enough (although it wouldn't hurt to shorten the exposed part of some of these a tad bit). The NAND traces don't look like they've been trimmed through or...

When you say there's no input, do you mean that the screen isn't showing anything when powering it on? It's important to be specific and detailed with this stuff so we can better help you. Pictures also help a lot. If you're not getting video like I suggested, I must ask, are you trying...

Yeah, you're gonna want to use 22awg for the batteries as well as for things like the charging wires, and the power wires to the Wii and screen. Anything that draws a good amount of power you'll want 22awg for.

It's always smart to test your circuits like you did here whenever you're able to! This is something I always try to do when it doesn't involve soldering hundreds of wires, or wires that are extremely sensitive. So cool to see this working in theory! Also I love the Asuka artwork! One of...
