I recently purchased a Road Show and I'm slowly fixing some problems. I'm pretty new to the hobby and I've hit a snag. The one problem I can't solve is the entire row 7 of my lights is out.

So far I checked/replaced all bulbs and used a multimeter to test continuity on the string of lights, which narrowed it down to a problem with the power driver board. I confirmed the problem is on the board by borrowing a replacement power driver board. With the borrowed board in, the lights work fine. My buddy who is helping me had a spare transistor, so we replaced Q84 as a shot in the dark. That did not work, so now I'm not sure what steps to take to continue trouble shooting. Any help is appreciated.

Check the LM339. You can compare the readings to another working row.

The 4th image in the following link provides test points and what they should read with the row on and off.
