Freeplaytech Forum

Fixed!
The Pi wasn't clicked in properly, which is odd because I haven't touched it. Oh well that doesn't matter!

Thank you so much!

You're right that it is odd. Well, I'm glad you found the problem/solution!

Is the SD card possibly corrupt?  Is the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3 (the green board) fully plugged in?  Did you remove/reseat that ever?

I just received my freeplaytech with backlight circuit CM3 kit.  I have connected everything for a quick test and am getting the white screen with no green light no matter how long I hold the switch.

So far I have reseated my LCD and also removed the backlight circuit and tried putting the LCD into the board directly to rule out an issue with the backlight board.

Nothing seems to work for me.

Any suggestions to try next? 

Update:
I switched to try and use etcher for the burning and that seemed to do the trick for me.  The software I used on my drive apparently did not work correctly.
Thanks.

I'm curious as to what software you used first. I answered you in the Discord.
