Crisis Regarding IR Board!!!

Our IR board has been working PERFECTLY until now. We had it all programmed (to recognize commands from remote) and wired. All of a sudden it no longer recognizes the original commands anymore. I will try to put it into program mode and attempt to retrain the board with the first command. I will hold down the button I want to program for the first command and soon the CMD0 light will go out only to be replaced by the error LED flashing approximately 7 times. After this, the CMD2 light will light and remain lit until I power the board down. Furthermore, if I enter program mode and then tap the button on the IR board the error LED will flash and then all four CMD LEDs will light and remain lit until I power the board down.

Is there anyone out there with a solution to this problem?

Re: Crisis Regarding IR Board!!!

Have you tested the 5V regulator? They seem very failure prone and your's might have died.
