I have my icade 60in1 up and running but it still seems a little flaky. What is the best way to test the 5volts. I am not sure if I am doing this correctly.

I seem to ground it out when I test the board at the harness/board on the 5v pin and the ground pin. Still not sure why this happens?

Anyway Edit: Set the meter on DCV. Measure the +5v right at the switcher & use the field ground. I cranked the icade up to 5.2v and that seemed to solve the issue


( 60-in-1, 60 in 1, plus five volts, multimeter, test point)
