Re: PDP - LED's

I've opened up the case for a couple of these failures and both times several circuit components have been fried. Pretty much requiring a new PDP.
The burnt ones worked fine for dumb power distribution on a practice, experimental, or previous year's robot.

Repair is best handled by contacting Cross the Road Electronics

Here's a closeup of a burnt board.
