i have several i3's with the mks base 1.3 board
on one of them the sd card reader sometimes reads, sometimes doesnt
got one of my new replacement lcds , plug in, and it 's dark
tried 3 other lcds, none light up when plugged in to the mksbase but power up fine when plugged into ramps 1.4 board
anybody know where to get an lcd that will work with the mksbase 1.3?

Hi,
Yeah, I got it at the start. I solved the same problem.
What I tryed to tell you is that plugs are reverted on MKS boards.
I mean Pin 1 on the board is Pin 10 on the standard LCD controlers.
Don't exchange the cables, just reverse a plug at one end of each cable.
(take appart one plug on each cable and plug it on the other side of the ribbon cable,
the contacts must match the connector pins)
Then it will works.

i have 6 others that are mksbase 1.3 and they are all just fine
but it is pitiful that something as simple as a bad sd card reader stops these printers in their tracks
i have search the EARTH for the lcd that came with the printers and have 2 ordered but waiting for them to get here from china
i HOPE they are the correct ones.
