Setup an ILI9341 on a breadboard following your PCB tracks.

And it works. Tried to make it fail by wiggling the jumpers. The only one that was touchy was Reset. Seems quite sensitive to noise so make sure you have 3.3V on the LCD panel Reset pin.
Maybe worth soldering a 10nF cap from Reset to Gnd. on top of the panel pins to ensure it has a clean 3.3V.
