PIC16F877A Project Help

[mike675]

Hello, I am a student in my 4th year in university, I have a small micro project that's divided into 4 parts.
My plan is to divide the work and do part by part and not move on till the previous part is fully complete
The project is listed below as a word attachment
there are a list of projects.
Mine is the car monitor system

I managed to do the belt and door part so far
However I have a small problem.
the data on the LCD keeps refreshing quickly, so the data turns on and off really fast. I cant seem to find where the problem is

I will also attach my progress so far below in a word file. Any help would be appreciated.

**NOTE** I am not allowed to use Interrupts for this projects, only LCD, Timers, and LEDs.

Hello,

I believe the cause of the issue is that you have LCD_Init() inside your while(1), so it's getting called over and over.
Call the LCD_Init() before the while loop.

Kind regards,

oh I see, ok I will try it out tomorrow in the labs(I am only allowed to work in the labs at specific times)

I will get back to you if I face the same problem again if you don't mind
