I think reason is that LCD works on 5v but microbit board 3v so the logic level is different. I tryed program LCD using blocks with MakeCode but it did’t work.

My 16x2 LCD has an i2c display, so I can’t put a contrast-controlling resistor in the circuit. However, the LCD lights up - on full power - so it could be working all along! Any thoughts on how to change the contrast on an i2c setup, please? I can’t get your program to work, I’m afraid.

Me temo que no hablo español, así que estoy usando DeepL para que me traduzca. El programa Python que incluye el'driver' para la pantalla LCD está en esta página web: https://maker.pro/microbit/tutorial/how-to-setup-an-lcd-screen-with-microbit Espero que eso ayude.
