I decided to dismantle my Keg today to see if any cables were disconnected which would explain why it has not been working but all appeared fine until i looked closer at the circuitboard and imparticular the area around the cable to headunit connection.
It was so hard to take a nice picture so i shall resort to simply explaining the situation in the hope that an electronics expert can advise whether this would effect the workings or whether i should simply wait until my new cable arrives and try that.
on the circuitboard next to the back of the connector to the headunit there is the code J7. to the immediate right of this there are two full stops which lead off to the right and into the headunit connector. part way along these two lines below, there is a black burnt type spot which would indicate that the connection lines would no longer work but there is still metal there. They just seem to be covered in a little black like they had burnt a little.
Could this be the cause for the Keg not working?
There are no obvious signs that the Keg to HU cable is faulty but i ordered one anyway, there cant be many other things to go wrong with the Keg.
