I am trying to interface a 16x2 lcd with PIC24F16KA102, without much success. Seems like I am missing something in the code. Here's some code I got from a thread here and modified to work with my muc,

Code:
#include "p24Fxxxx.h"
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include "delay.h"

// LCD display ports etc
#define LCDdata LATB					// data port
#define LCDdataEnable	TRISB
#define RS LATAbits.LATA2				// RS bit in LCDstatus
#define RW LATAbits.LATA1			// read/write bit in LCDstatus
#define E  LATAbits.LATA0  			// enable bit in LCDstatus
#define Eenable TRISAbits.TRISA0
#define ERSenable TRISAbits.TRISA2
#define RWenable TRISAbits.TRISA1


void lcd_delay() { delay_ms(8); }  // if LCD does not work make this longer

// Write a nibble to the LCD
// may have to adjust delays to suit the processor and clock
void lcdNibble(int n)
{
    int lcd=LCDdata;
    lcd_delay();
    LCDdata=n;
    lcd_delay();
    E=1;					// take clock E high
    lcd_delay();
    E=0;
    lcd_delay();
 }

// Write a Control Command to the LCD
// This is written as two nibbles
void lcdCmd(int c)
{
 	RS=0;			        // Take RS pin low for command
	lcdNibble(c);			        // Makeup Lower Nibble
}

// write a data byte to LCD
int lcdPutchar(int d)
{
//    printf("%c", d);
	RS=1; 				// Take RS pin high for data
	lcdNibble(d);		            // Makeup Lower Nibble
        PORTBbits.RB0 = 0;
    return 1;
}

// Initialise the LCD in 4bit Mode
void lcdInit()
{
	E=0;				// take E low
 	RS=0;				// Take RS pin low for command
 	RW=0;				// Take RS pin low for command
    // set RS, RW and E bits as output
	Eenable =0;
	ERSenable =0;
	RWenable =0;

        
	lcdNibble(0x3);		// This put the LCD into Soft Reset
	lcdNibble(0x3);
	lcdNibble(0x3);
	lcdNibble(0x2);
	lcd_delay();
	lcdCmd(0x28);			// 2 line, 4 bit mode
//	lcdCmd(0x38);			// 2 line, 8 bit mode
	lcd_delay();
        lcdCmd(0x06);			// increment cursor after each write
	lcd_delay();
        lcdCmd(0x01);			// clear display
	lcd_delay();
        lcdCmd(0x02);			// home
	lcd_delay();
        lcdCmd(0x0F);			// turn disply on
	lcd_delay();
}


_FWDT	(FWDTEN_OFF);
_FOSCSEL(FNOSC_FRCPLL);
_FOSC   ( POSCFREQ_HS & POSCMOD_HS & OSCIOFNC_OFF );

int main(void){

    OSCCON = 0x0000;
    CLKDIV = 0x0000;
    
    TRISBbits.TRISB0 =0;
    PORTBbits.RB0 = 1;
    lcdInit();

    lcdPutchar("s");
    while(1);
    return 0;
}

Any help is appreciated.
