Hi there
I am strugelling to connect my 1.69inch Touch LCD Module Touch Waveshare screen to my Pi 5. When I connect using Waveshares wiring:
https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/1.69inch ... LCD_Module
it shorts out the Pi (solid red light). I think it is because the power is being pulled from the 3.3 V. I have tried running it off the 5.5 V supply but then that then means another pin needs to go the the 3.3 V as pins 1 to 4 are all being used. Any advice? does anyone have a beginer's guide to get this conencted and working?
