Solved the Issue, apperently it wasn't a programming related issue but a voltage issue I had in my system.
This code worked using the Pico2W and the LiquidCrystalI2C lib.
#include <Arduino.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include <LiquidCrystal_I2C.h>
LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x27, 20, 4);
void setup()
{
lcd.init(); // initialize the lcd
lcd.backlight();
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop()
{
Serial.println("Testing LCD");
lcd.clear();
lcd.setCursor(0, 0);
lcd.print("Testing LCD");
delay(2000);
lcd.clear();
lcd.setCursor(0, 1);
lcd.print("Abrakadabra");
delay(2000);
}
