Tired of taking off the mission pcb and making sure everything is plugged in correctly, any ideas why these would do this? They don't seem to be related according to the lamp table left bank bottom right bank middle and mission 5 (Q) are all out

Are those all on the same circuit board? If so, reflow solder at the base of the header pins. If that doesn't do it, reflow and add a tiny bit of solder to the socket pads.

And if what Cody suggests doesn't help, test the diodes for the respective lamps.

Yes all on Same circuit board but different pars of it I guess I need to take it out again and really check those three traces, the biggest header is very hard to get on and off so I'm guessing it's from that and that had a lot of red wires if I remember right which most of the lamps are connected to from that board, so close to being done with my LEDs the way I want it

And while I have this thing out any tips to make the connector not as tight which Im guessing increases chances of broken solder issues

Ok so finally reflowed solder same problem but then I took out each led bulb and made sure the wire leads weren't to flat and then finally made contact and once I did that to the ones not lit up, all is good again.
