I moved your topic to an appropriate forum category @cjfranklin.
In the future, please take some time to pick the forum category that best suits the subject of your topic. There is an "About the _____ category" topic at the top of each category that explains its purpose.
This is an important part of responsible forum usage, as explained in the "How to get the best out of this forum" guide. The guide contains a lot of other useful information. Please read it.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
I think you should re-check the following:
1 - loose connections
2 - try to rotate the pot for background led light
3 - order of wire connection between LCD and Arduino
Thanks and regards
Show the connections to the board. If the connections aren't incredibly obvious what goes where, show a schematic (actually a good idea just by itself). Show the sketch. Use the <CODE/> tag. Then it'll be possible to give informed advice.
What does the back of the LCD look like? I will guess a pin responsible for the first eight characters of both rows have been damaged or bridged. Maybe the two blobs over the chips got squished.
