Phillipe, I had a similar problem, and found that I had removed the polarizing filter from the LCD thinking that it was protective film! The hint to this is that when you switch on and look very carefully, you will see very faint characters on the LCD module.

I missed soldering pin #1 on this and the result was no display also. A real problem to cure that mistake! Another item to check could be the LCD display itself. Mine was too short in the device pins so had to solder on the top side (front) of the board as noted in the K2 manual. There is a chance that the LCD display soldering will be ineffective if soldered on the underside. No doubt other suggestions will come your way on what to check.
