Re: Returning bad digital sidecar

Steve,
The digital sidecar is a First supplied part in a round about way. I think there is info on returns on the First website. I would examine the sidecar and see if there is any obvious failures. Just connect it to a 12 volt power supply and see if all the power LEDs come on. You may have had some issue with wayward conductive material that took out the power supply on the board. The schematics are also on the first website.
