Screen 5V Mod Help

Post by rofl-hunter » Sun Feb 28, 2021 12:52 pm

Hello everyone.

So I have another board variant that couldn't be found on the Wiki, so I want to ask for your help.

How do I proceed from here?
Searching for SK-243-Main-V5.1 didn't show me any results, so I can't provide a datasheet for now.

Let me know if I can share the Aliexpress link here or if I can provide any further information.
I'm not sure if I did this correctly, but measuring with a Voltmeter while the display is lighten up, I could find the following voltages.

Not sure what it means though, since I have zero experience in electronics. Does this mean that I can only connect this to the 3.3V pin on my RPI Zero?

Thanks in advance.

Well, since noone answered, I just took the plunge and soldered a cable to pin 2. The display does not turn on.
This is how it looks like.
