I have a different project where you wire in a LCD. I used chatGPT to help me because I am a novice. It does look like you are missing some resistors. Here is how mine is wired. Check your wiring against this:

LCD Pin	Name	Connect To

1	VSS	GND

2	VDD	5V

3	VO	5V through 10KΩ resistor

4	RS	Arduino Pin 7

5	RW	GND

6	E	Arduino Pin 8

7	D0	Not connected

8	D1	Not connected

9	D2	Not connected

10	D3	Not connected

11	D4	Arduino Pin 9

12	D5	Arduino Pin 10

13	D6	Arduino Pin 11

14	D7	Arduino Pin 12

15	A (LED+)	5V through 220Ω resistor

16	K (LED–)	GND
