Guys, I'm having difficulty configuring this mks mini12864 v3 display with smoothiware, in fact my ZMORPH board burned out, so I'm using an MKS Sgen_L V1.0, the zmorph fork available here on github. I even followed this document makerbase-mks/MKS-SBASE#101, but it still doesn't work. I can even set it to preheat but the display doesn't show anything

Try connecting EXP1 and EXP2 by flipping them 180 degrees or by swapping them left and right. When powered, V2.1 operates with a white LCD, while V3 requires the execution of separate environmental variables for the backlight to function. However, graphics are displayed on the screen even without a backlight.

If that still doesn’t work, there might be an issue with the LED being faulty. In fact, one of the three MINI displays I had was damaged during shipping and didn’t display anything at all. Without the other two, I would have remained in the dark about the situation
