So i was in my chair and i clicked run script and when i got up i tripped and lightly hit my breadboard and then the screen (ili9341) went white. Before i hit it, it was working but not anymore. I tryed decconect the pico and put it back on then but it didn’t work so i tryed re downloading (i only put it into boot mode then put the circuitpy file and didn’t use the flash_nuke file) circuitpy and didn’t work as well, wiring seems fine and i dont think i broke anything, i just almost touched it.

Note: Actually i fixed it. I think it was just a little connection problem. It does it often but i figured it all so it’s good, thx for helping and the links in the reponse are helpfull so thx.

• i dont think i broke anything – your description suggests otherwise – Jaromanda X Mar 20 at 22:35
• (1) Are you following any of the following tutorials? (a) bytesnbits.co.uk/raspberry-pi-pico-spi-lcd-display (b) instructables.com/Raspberry-Pi-Pico-CircuitPython-ILI9341 (c) hackster.io/news/… – tlfong01 Mar 21 at 3:26  
• you said that you hit it… that is definitely not almost touched it … remove all components and wires from the breadboard … build the circuit from the begining – jsotola Mar 21 at 3:28 
• (2) Or are you using Pico Thonny MicroPython and used its “manage package” tool and installed the following 6 years old PyPi ILI9341 package? github.com/tuupola/micropython-ili934x – tlfong01 Mar 21 at 4:00   
• (3) This ILI9341 library is good: AdaFruit ILI9341 CircuitPython Library – CircuitPython docs.circuitpython.org/projects/ili9341/en/latest/index.html. – tlfong01 Mar 21 at 14:04
