I was working on trying to get a single non-working opto going by installing a new opto board. Now am having trouble with almost every opto in the game including the hour optos in the clock. I haven't been able to figure this out. The 12v is getting to the opto board. I am able to trigger all the non working optos in the switch edges test by pulling the connectors off of J1 & J4 of the opto board (goes to the receiving optos) and jumpering 12v to each pin. The transmitting LED pins at J2 & J3 are also reading 12v. Putting the old board back in makes no difference. Reseating the and wiggling the connectors does nothing either. I can't find any way to clear up the clock optos. I've tried reseating the connectors to the clock too. What could be causing this? I'm stumped.
 
Upon reviewing the wiring diagram further, it seems the pins at J1 & J4 aren't registering the correct optos. What would cause them to become switched around?
