dale	Re: i'm sure it'll work if you bypass the resistors and diodes. it's likely the resistors that are the problem, but as you said the diodes may be backwards and therefore also causing it. what i'd do is take both the resistors and diodes out, then put led's in place of them, and if that doesn't work just reverse the led leads and i'm sure that'll work. drill holes to put the led's in as indicator lights, if there are no holes allready. i'm assuming that when you said diodes you meant DIODES and not led's. of course if you don't care about having indicator lights don't put anything in it. dale
