2 Problems & Fixes
2.1 Mothership
If one or more of the LEDs on the mothership locks on, the 4094 chip at U2 or U3 may be bad on the mothership's PCB. U2 drives LEDs: 1-8. U3 drives LEDs: 9-16. Note that when replacing the chip(s), it is recommended to *not* use a chip socket, and instead solder the replacement chip directly to the PCB. This is because of all the motion and vibration of the mothership.
