Did it come with a presoldered ribbon cable? Because the problem could also be the cable orientation

     Did you verify the model of lcd  was directly swappable with your lcd ?  t6963c doesn't make it directly compatible there could be some additional electronics you might  have to add. Al so if your internal battery is dead you would get blank text

It is the right controller. YMMV as to the layout of the plug and configuration of the display and connector. You might have to tweak the contrast, twist the cable, or set a cable bridge to change the font size.  Time for experiments - but there will be some setting where it works.

As my backlight is dead, I tried to avoid disassembling the LCD by buying a replacement LCD.
 
I read somewhere, that the type should be compatible with T6963C.
 
So I bought this one:

I connected everything except the 100V. The display became black, without any letters visible.
 
Did anyone replace the complete LCD yet ?
