8.4" to 12.1" screen replacement

Still the same issue…everything works except the display. Do I need a second Jumper LVDS that attaches to old one?
 
The LVDS cable (white plug with 4 little connectors) goes from the radio module directly to the screen. No Jumper there.
 
Now, we need to start from scratch.
Make sure all connections on the radio module are plugged in correctly.
Check the LVDS cable, this is the only source you will get data to the display.
Check for power, RED and BLACK wire on your newly re pinned connector.
The display only has two connectors, the re pinned plug and the LVDS connector.
Look at the pins in the LVDS connector on both, the radio module and the screen. No bend pins.
Is the screen totally black or is there just no Image? Back light should come on very dim.
 
In following this thread, i was thinking maybe the module is not for his truck. I think the OP mentioned the part number was scratched off so we don't know which module it is. We know the 2021 year works on a different module then the 2019-2020. Might be the issue. Just my 2 cents.

i have 2 12in screens
 
Now we know. You bought a 12" screen and plugged it in your original module?
 
8.4 module will not work with the 12" screen. You'll need to get a radio module for the 12" screen.
This is what I bought, work perfectly.
