Interesting thread, glad I found it. I'm trying to figure out if I have a short somewhere in my lamp matrices. Using my multimeter, I'm getting continuity across both sides of my lamp lines -- both GI and feature. I'm no rocket scientist, but that doesn't jive with what I understand to be right. Does this funkiness create some sort of signal overlap? I assumed it to be a shorted lamp socket but I've replaced 90% of the feature lights so far and still getting signal on both sides. Maybe I just haven't found it yet? Have not gone through replacing GI sockets yet.
Also, paging dyopp21 because I put yoppsicles in and I don't want to blow them up when I power them on. Would they be compatible with this?
