vkjohnson Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Is it on 100% intensity, or does it look like it is a little dimmer than that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zing Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 sounds like a triac gone bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philnuffer Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Had the same problem. Yup, bad Triac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vkjohnson Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Very likely, although they usually fail at 50% intensity. Could be a snubber issue if it is LEDs. Does this channel use LED or incans and how big is the power load on it? Have you tired plugging incans into it and fading it if they are LEDs?

Jim Hans Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Re-set the controller as per the instructions. May help it. also, as stated above, try plugging something into it with a bigger draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
