Having major problems getting things to work.
If I cut, or more accurately desolder at the soldered joints, then everything works if I either leave it cut or rejoin to the rest if the strip...even adding a wire spacer in between to make a 90 degree turn.
But if I cut between the pads at any other location, there are problems. The first half connected to the SSC works fine,no matter what the length. But if I try to reconnect the two portions, there are no lights beyond the cut. I've tried it with different size and lengths if wire just to be sure I am not adding too much resistance, and none have worked. I seem to have power if I check the pads farther down, but still no lights.
I also tried to cut the strips on a pad rather than between two, and then reconnect without a wire...much like it seems they were done on the factory joints. when I do this I blow a fuse on the hub and get no lights anywhere.
Any ideas?
