My raspberry pi b+ 3.5 inch lcd screen is blank

My raspberry pi 3 b + with 3.5 inch lcd screen is blank, please help me, when I run the code Lcd show and git clone (github code) it doesn’t work.

Hi Cleon, Welcome to the Forum!

Good news, your screen is working to to some degree based on the little lightning symbol that you have there, generally that would indicate thats not enough current available to power the device, would you mind sharing a photo of how you have it set up on the back?

I updated my raspberry pi (I used operating system 32 bit) after that, I just use this code

sudo rm -rf LCD-show

git clone GitHub - goodtft/LCD-show: 2.4" 2.8"3.2" 3.5" 5.0" 7.0" TFT LCD driver for the Raspberry PI 3B+/A/A+/B/B+/PI2/ PI3/ZERO/ZERO W

chmod -R 755 LCD-show

cd LCD-show/

sudo ./LCD35-show

Please help me​:pray::pray::pray:

Hey @Cleon271839,

Those setup steps look okay to me, can’t see why that would cause you any problems assuming you didn’t get any errors or warnings when you ran those commands.

The lighting bolt symbol is normally an indication from the Pi that it is not receiving enough power. Could you share what specific Pi board and display you are using (links would be great) and what power supply you are using to run this.

Its possible that your power supply has enough juice to run your Pi but not enough to give the screen what it needs.
