Wow start by organizing your wires try seeing if it works when you remove cage cause if it is just find its source and cover it if not resolder your led conections to + and neg
Uhmmmm no.
Organizing wires wouldn't have anything to do with this. He'd either be shorting, or working. They're obviously working, so his management is okay.
He doesn't need to resolder his connections, cuz they obviously
work.
The power led is dim because you're leeching too much power from the power board. That's what most people have found the problem to be, and most solve it by bridging the power led resistor. The other one's might be dim because of the same reason, although I doubt it. Not sure about those.
They were fine in the beginning, right?
didi ya use a resistor? if not, theres yer problem
Naw, resistor wouldn't make them
brighter lol. If he wasn't using a resistor, they might blow. If he isn't, that wouldn't make them dim.
