Hi all, I need some assistance in regards to my Simucube 1.
I’ll start with some quick context, I bought this second hand a year ago and have been loving it. Recently it’s been giving me some problems along the lines of fault ID’s 140407, 440205 and 192001. All at different times depending on my startup.
My Granity shows:

I’ve been reading through the forums and have been fixing some things. Most of the faults seem to be typically made by the estop.
I’ve replaced the estop button 3 times, I’ve replaced the cable twice, I’ve replaced the RCA plug twice. In addition I’ve replaced the actual RCA connector on the box. After that I thought it might be EMI so I replaced the power plug with the EMI filter on it as it was rusty, but still no luck.
The interesting thing though is, every time I replace something and start it up, the sim works. For example, on Wednesday it wasn’t working, I replaced the RCA plug for the estop, it worked the entire time without a hickup, and the race was 51 laps, so about an hour 30 worth of time, but every time I turn it off, and turn it back on the next day, this issue happens.
I thought it might be software related, so I’ve deleted and reinstalled simucube and granity again, but no luck. I haven’t tried going to a earlier version though.
Looking for some guidance.

I’ve definitely ruined something somewhere. The only thing I haven’t tried is bridging the estop on the board and seeing if I could bypass it but would ideally like to avoid that if possible. I also don’t have any measurings of the board as I don’t have the tools to measure power but can find someone to do it.
Any help would be much appreciated.
