Free schematic in PBP manual in the LCDOUT section.I decided to buy a lcd screen so I could output the results to it but I have no idea how to hook it up.

It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

I have one questions about it tho, pin 3 on the lcd connects to the middle of the 20K resistor? I don't understand that part.
also I don't have a 20K resistor should I use 18K , 22K , 18K and 2K in series, or wait till I can get a 20K?
Thanks
It's a 20K potentiometer or trimmer. It's there to adjust the LCD contrast. You can use lower value. 1-10K still work. You can also use two resistor to make a fix contrast. Wich value... ARRRGGH close to be impossible to tell, no lcd work the same way.
You can still use HPWM to make a software controlled LCD contrast... for now, just plug-it and display on it.
