Hi!
Lucky owner of a premium 2015-16
I have problems with GI? (Slings, backboard, apron) some games it’s flashing like crazy. Strobe light.
Does anyone know what to do?

Quoted from yzfguy:Yep. Follow the cable under the playfield(up near the back) that looks like a phone line. Reset the connector. Bam! Strobing gone.
Ok will have a look.
I tried to power off and on the game but still bad.
Is this a network cable? Any idea why it happens
Quoted from yzfguy:Yes, it's a network cable, I think it just happens due to vibration.
Ahh! Thanks!
Will check tomorrow
Quoted from Rob_G:I hope this is the right size. Trifuron pins should be used when the connector is replaced. It's what I used.

Im not sure that either power cable or network is the problem. On my game I doesn’t help but if I disconnect the RED GI from the board it stops! (cN20)
I will check soldering to se if it helps.
Quoted from embryon:I viewed the video and just checked my game as has strobing and noticed while removing power cable that the header pins were loose. I resoldered and all good. But I'm unsure if that solved the issue or merely reseating the connections did.
Did you remove the connectors and solder the cable to the pins?
I tried to reset my game with power connector and network but still strobe.
If I remove Red GI it stops and starts with reconnect
