SCK on 18LF4520

Hi,
I am trying to get a 5110 LCd to run on a surface mount PCB with an 18LF4520 PIC.
I have LEDs flashing, so I know the PIC is 'alive', but at the SCK PIN 37 it goes high at start-up, but doesn't 'clock'
I've looked on the DS, and see there is a bit to switch it on, but I've not noticed it in programs I've seen, or perhaps I've missed it.
Any clues please? I'll keep trying.
Camerart.
 
Most people forget to TRIS the C port It will be high as it will be pulled high by the 5110..
Hi I,
I have TRISed the C port, so it must be something else.

Are you using hardware SPI? SSPCON1 = 0x20 turns on SPI..
Hi I,
Yes.
I tried that setting, but no SCK switching.
On the PCB I used 1.27mm spaced connector, which are a bit too close for soldering, so I will try again with 2.54 ones, and see what that brings, thanks.
