***Edit*** Disregard - I found someone (RJ) to repair my board, and to buy a spare from!


I've got a 4-slot (In and MVU4-25) that worked great until yesterday. Now, it just gives a black screen, and flashes the credit display once every second or so - it may give a little click sound when the credit display resets, too.
Hoping it's an easy fix, or hoping to find someone to diagnose/repair it for me.

Voltage seems fine at 4.90, The cab runs my PGM board fine, & I've tried this board in my Astro as well with the same result. No corrosion, just won't power up / constantly resets. Any thoughts?

Original battery been removed?

From the wiki, assuming from your description that it isn't a fast watchdog click.

-A slow click (1Hz or less) can mean that some step of the system self-test causes a crash. Address lines, dead memory, shorted traces...
-Random clicks can indicate cut, floating traces.

Not super specific.
