CHECK YOUR EXPANSION BOARD
PORTS/ STRIP LIGHT PORTS /
EFFECTS BOARD PORTS
It is important to note that connectors
can only be inserted to the expansion
board, strip light, or effects board ports
in one direction.
Forcibly inserting connectors in
the incorrect direction will result in
damaging the pins inside each of
the ports on your component board.
Not only will a light connected to the
damaged port not work, but if the pins
inside the port are bent to a point they
are touching each other, this can result
in all other lights in the system to stop
working. This is a short circuit.
A short circuit can also result in
overheating of the board, cable or
batteries. If you suspect a short circuit,
DISCONNECT POWER IMMEDIATELY.
Batteries can fail, catch fire, or even
explode if left connected to a short
circuit for too long.
If you suspect you have a faulty
component due to a bent pin,
try the following steps:
If you look carefully inside each of the
ports, each port contains 2 small pins
that should be straight. You will be
able to identify a faulty port if it has
any bent pins.
