Turned on my Stern Star Trek Premium today and the Captain’s Chair, mode select and Photon SMD boards do not light up. The board indicator LED is flashing rapidly and the SMDs flash when powered up. The Ethernet cable that supplies the board array checks out as being good. All other SMDs supplied by the control board are functioning as they should. I had this problem once before and it came clear while troubleshooting. There are no errors displayed in the diagnostics menu. Has anybody run into this before or have any ideas on what I should check next?

I've also just recently started having lighting issues on my Pre.

My center board is doing almost the same thing. Does not light up at power on, but after a couple minutes of play, the lights come on but not at full brightness. Power issue perhaps? Anyone else encounter this? I'm hoping there's a solution that isn't buying new boards. Marco has some of them in stock, but they start at about $60

The green in my left lock is out as well. Found a thread on that:

Going to order a couple of these to try and fix and have a couple spares.
