The spindle drive LED's are all off . On closer inspection I un-plugged the 3 black therminals from the right side on the back of SF-CA Card. Powered up and all LED's working. I plugged back in the Terminal strips one at a time and it's only when the top one is in that the LED's go out. So the top Therminal strip is pulling the drive down. what can I do ? Should I try and trace where the wires from this strip are going, should I check or look for anything in particular ? I'm attaching a few pics. In the second Picture with the top therminal strip left out it's fine and the front shows whats in picture 4. When I plug in the top Therminal Strip as in picture 3 all the led's go out. The power supply LED goes down with the Card LED's too.
