I am in desperate need of some help as this is third time I have attempted to install a sound card into my saber.
This last attempt involved using an FX Construction Kit sound board. Before I even opened up the saber, I was swinging it around and hitting it against stuff. Suddenly the saber started making sounds as if the clash sensor was in high gear. I messed with switching the colors with the saber on (can't remember if it was before or after this that the sound screwed up). After turning it off for a short while, it would work just fine again for about 30 seconds, before screwing up again. Then the blue and green LED's stopped working. I figured it was just a busted clash sensor.
Well, since I wasn't concerned with the clash sensor or the LED's as I just wanted to use it for its sound, I wired it up to my LUX III and buckpuck. (see diagram below)
Unfortunately, even with the clash sensor disconnected, it is still screwing up! And the LUX III isn't lighting up either!!! It flashed once when I turned it on and it won't come on even if I change the boards color selection!
SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!!!!
I just want my saber to light up and have sound!!!
This is my current wiring set up. (Props to Arms on Fire for the original schematics).
BTW: > I also covered most of the board in hot glue in an attempt to keep the wires/components from pulling off. Though I don't think that it is a concern.
