Quoted from Pmaino:All new LED bulbs were put in so I can rule that out.
Did it work prior with regular bulbs?

Not sure on that game, but most that use a relay board usually have a 2nd one somewhere for another purpuse. One trick is to swap the relay board with another to confirm/isolate the problem.
Relay boards are nothing but a relay which is a low failure item, and a connector which is a high failure item. So like Lost said, check/reflow is a good start prior to purchasing a new one.
Are these flashers or GI? If flashers, then 12vdc, if GI then 6.3VAC. And if GI you would go one lead each side of the input, not 1 lead to ground.
And trust me you do not want to shove meter leads into a socket. It is like playing the game of Operation, except instead of a buzzer when you slip, you can mess up your lamp matrix drivers. Been there, got a couple t-shirts.
Quoted from jhanley:I know whats wrong.I traced it out.So easy to fix!
Grats! Now to figure out Pmaino...
Pmaino, the fuses will be in the manual on Page 40 of http://mirror2.ipdb.org/files/2765/Williams_1990_Whirlwind_Operations_Manual_Br_With_Schematics.pdf
To figure out which one is which,,, Page 96, Backbox Interconnect Board. Probably F5.
Ok you got me confused with these short posts.
Are you saying Pmaino's problem is not fuses? And you figured it out? Can you share?
Or are you saying the problem YOU had was not fuses
Need some context here.
