Couple of things,

 The 3.3 v reg (little three legged part with 3.3v near it on the left side of the pic chip) and some of the pic chip legs look a little off the pad and are kinda dry like they had little solder paste on them.

I think I would take a good look at them and maybe touch them up with the soldering iron if I am correct.

All Done , I get continuity from PIC pins Bottom 2,3,4,left to right to THE U2,s RIGHT to LEft second pin down on the left hand side. RJ the only R<G<B I see is above the R7 I check continuity here also with no results but did get continuity as you describe on the U2,s am I missing something I do not see the BIG R>G>B that you refer to

OK that makes feel better so if I am gettin continuity to the drivers and resolder PIC and 3.3 what should I do next. FYI now when I put jumper to PROGRAM ALL LEDS come on for about 5 sec. and then go off and when I move jumper to OP. 1 flash and no MAN. Also red power led still does not come on

Ok just got that you have no Red led.

We need to check the power. When you get back send me a pm and we will try to setup a chat troubleshooting session. I will be as flexiable as I can but I am also franticly working on a show myself.

Well I am glad you got it going. Sorry you I have not been more avaliable.

I have been working hard to help everyone but with trying to setup a show it has been a challenge. I am behind on pm's also so be patient folks I should have a show running this evening and we will be on the downhill slide I hope.
