• Measure the voltage on AC1 and AC2 (set your voltmeter to AC and place the probes
on AC1 and AC2), it should read within 12VAC-13.8VAC or if you use 12 VDC, the
meter must read 13.5 - 14.0 VDC.
• The LCD's ribbon cable has red dots along the side. The red dots must be facing
down. It must be connected to the terminal marked number 1.
• The LCD's ribbon cable sits tight on the terminal pins marked LCD on the board.
