First of all: https://pinout.xyz/pinout/pin2_5v_power a nice neat site for de GPIO pins,

second, i did follow the tips i was getting from you guys. But the screen does not seems to give a signal. it stays, as you can see, completely black. Did i do something wrong or am i forgetting something?

sorry for my high noob levels :), first raspberry project.

Im still new to this BUT it was mentioned that the screen will not turn on or show that its on if there isnt an input signal..so you might need to load up RPi3 with an OS to be sure its working.

I have raspbian installed on my sd card. so there is a OS.

is it possible that a setting is wrong in the software?

it still has black screen, even no light.
