Picked up a White Water and Bigfoot is giving me fits. I'm sure that something got rattled loose in transit, but I'm stuck. I've reseated J118 and J122 several times, replaced F103, and reseated the 12v connections. Almost every time I turn it on, Bigfoot doesn't move, and I get a bigfoot error. There have been times that he moves a little, and there was that one time that he turned both directions and no switch error. I immediately went to test mode, and ran bigfoot opto test. He turned and both optos tested fine. When I tried to run the last test (position), it gave an error and seemed to lock up. When turning on, I have been looking in the cabinet to see if the bi-directional LED is lit. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. Currently it is on during boot, but turns off when done. I get the bigfoot error, and he won't move in test mode.
I'm thinking that I will put new molex connectors on J118 and J122 as well as the secondary power connectors (J101 and J102) J101 is burned at pin 1, and that fixed an annoying reboot issue on STTNG for me. I know that I'm eliminating variables instead of true troubleshooting, but I'm better at that than I am using the DMM to trace the problem I can use DMM, but not smart enough yet to know what to test.
Anything else I should be trying or testing? Has to be something stupid, I just haven't gotten it...
