NB3 Deep sleep issue

[JTP]

Hello friends. I have completed my first saber and I loved every second of it. It is all correctly wired and everything works perfectly. Everything except for the Deep Sleep function. I have altered the config file to shorten the time between when the saber is powered down and when it enters sleep to one minute. I am into minute 20 and the AV switch LED is still on and the board has not entered DS. My Deep setting is at 6000ms which is incredibly low. I have wired the LED for my AV switch to the DS pad on the board as indicated in the manual which means after one minute of inactivity both the saber and the LED should sleep.

Every now and then at odd intervals the board will make the boot noise even though its already on. Has anyone else had this issue and could provide a solution? Thanks!

So what you're saying is that your config file says the following?

deep=300

Are you making sure to not touch the saber at all when you're trying to let it go to sleep?

correct. I am noticing now that the blade LEDs are no longer coming on. The saber sounds, clash and swing all still work but the LEDs for the blade are not coming on now. Could I have messed something up with the config file or or could it be a loose wire? All my connections still look fine.

If you could, please post large, clear pictures of your wiring, as well as a copy of your config file.

it may be difficult to see but I can assure you that none of my contact points bleed together. I have checked thoroughly

My saber is now not coming on at all, even the AV. All I'm hearing is a faint buzzing from the speaker. All my connections for the board and battery are solid. Is this an issue with the board or could the recharge port connections be bad? Somehow the board isnt getting power but the speaker is?? the board feels warm to the touch. is that an indicator of something?

First step charge the battery to be sure it is not a low battery causing the led issue. It does sound like a shorted wire somewhere with the random boot sounds...probably on the + or - leads. Personally I don't like how much exposed wire is on the + and - at the board. Especially on the white wire.
