Re: The chasing-lights RC error

Well, that's how ours was caused. We had three IFI techs looking at it (we were in line at nationals) and they said that it is a special diagnostic mode. While we were downloading the code, apparently our cable degraded the signal such that the master microprocessor thought that we wanted diagnostic mode, and then it got stuck in it somehow (it wasn't entirely clear to me). Very strange.
