I'll check the voltage but the display does turn on. What happens is that I get an error 10 code nor any speed readings. the original display wouldn't even turn on at all. It failed after 6 months of use. So the new one does turn on but receives no speed feedback and has the error code.You should check the 5v. Comms protocols don't affect the LCD switching on the controller, since it has to do that before they can communicate.
