You likely unseated the parallel cable from the driver board to the computer, somewhere along its path.

Or, it needs to be replaced.

All of your symptoms point to the computer not communicating with the driver board.

Again, your symptoms are consistent with a communication issue between the computer and the driver board.

Could be a loose or bad parallel (not serial) cable between the computer and driver board. Could also be an issue with the motherboard, or the driver board.

From your description of how this began, I'd say your driver board is damaged, if you've ruled out the parallel cable.

No. If there is no communication between the two, the fuse reporting, and the HV fuse LEDs will not function.
