Half voltage in +5v node

Hello, good evening.

During simulation in kicad Im getting half of voltage (vdc 5V, +5 node voltage 2.5V).

Just searched in led models, and found that the pins for katode, anode are swapped.
I change the values to match, but it always got disconfigured when I look again.

Earth is a protection terminal not a ground reference. Maybe this is the issue. Use GND (0V) instead.

I’m not using Spice. I have just one year ago checked that ‘it works’.
You probably used diode symbol intended for designing PCB and not simulating.
You have 2.5V at V1 + pin, but also -2.5V at V1 - pin.
It looks that Earth is also not Spice destined symbol.

Hello. Will try that you told here. I was thinking I could use simulation components together with schematics ones.

Issue was just the ground. It worked with that led symbols.

You can. My note about diodes was related to:
